C# and Asp.Net Interview Questions

While looking for a change in job; those who are basically into .NET development, actually has to deal with the technical round. And .NET, being a vast technology, an interviewer will be questioning you in a variety of ways...

Here I'm going to share some of the real time Interview questions, that are now in trend. The companies mentioned are based on Techno park, Trivandrum, Kerala, India.

I'm going to separate the questions based on the Companies. Feel free to start discussing on the trends and hope that these questions will help you to know the trends in .NET interviews and also to prepare accordingly.

One who is looking for a job change with 5 years of experience in .NET, will be usually handled as a senior developer / team lead post and below are the profile, the companies are looking

• Basics of ASP.NET is a must
• Along with that SQL and ADO.NET
• Then comes the Oops and Design Patterns
• The latest trends in C#, and Proficiency in WCF, MVC, JQuery, LINQ etc
• Project Management & leading experience and also the tools used.

So better start with the basic stuffs and what is important is the confidence involved in answering. If one is good in WCF, but poor in Basic .NET and Oops Concept, then there comes no chance for that guy.

But if you are good in .NET and Oops concept, and that you don't know about other latest technologies, you are sure to be selected. The concept is that, by knowing the base, it will be easier for you to pick up. But if you are expert in one technology and don't know basics, then if that technology changes and a new one comes in, then you may not be able to pick up the same.
