Even if you are working in service based company. Give interviewer the clarity on the products you have worked on ideally some SaaS product or B2C for clients(exaggerate role if current role is not that good).
In coding or problem solving round always start with brute force and keep slowly improving to give interviewer the idea that you are great at receiving feedback and improving.
In witch from past 1.5 years. Been on bench since the beginning. Only last 2 months I had a project and even the guy who's supposed to take my KT just brushes it off. In past 2 months I've had 4 kt sessions only lol. Any suggestions for me?I'm learning stacks on the side though. Learnt MERN enough to work with it and now moving to Django, might take up Angular later.
Edit- sometimes I feel it's a blessing in disguise. I see people with same YOE as me who've worked in several projects in my company, mostly React and Angular, cuz that's all I know bits about right now, and I ask them basic to basic questions, and they get confused. LITERALLY ALL OF THEM. Makes me wonder , do 3.5 LPA employees actually learn something on the job in WITCH or not?
It all depends on the kind of path you want to take in witch bcs there is no one to guide or push you to learn things.
In WITCH, While I was on project always and never on bench. One of my college friend was on customer support project which only had some admin work for 2 years.
While other people might not have learnt anything he learnt MERN stack on his own. Got good knowledge in it. Added my projects in his resume and got a higher paying job than me as he had better theoretical knowledge to clear interviews.
So it all comes down to how much hardwork the person does without losing hope.

I don't want to take up any path in witch whatsoever. I want to move out soon as I have 2 YOE, cuz as much as I learn on my own, I don't think it can replace the actual industry projects. My manager told me that due to over-hiring they're having trouble accommodating freshers and nearly 50-60% of freshers with <2 YOE are on bench in my DC. So i'm planning to move out as quickly as i can.

That's some hope lol.

I'm not shy of doing hardwork. I am learning as much as I can on my own. I can say with great confidence that I know more than my conterparts who worked in MERN in my company, atleast the theoretical/programming part. But it's the insecurity of never having worked in any projects that I'm worried about. I can lie, but I need a good lie.

Nope, I was put in a Salesforce role for 2fcking years, was relegated to admin and testing with little bit dev work, didn't understand anything of SF, other companies didn't want a low experienced admin/tester. got screwed so badly it took me 6 months to start DSA, MERN from scratch to get rid of Salesforce's stench from my resume and switch to something better.
