Hi, I am also preparing for the interview.
Interviewers are more interested in the project explanation.
So along with the concepts, prepare your project well. All
the details about it. The interview questions that are
posted here are also very useful. I wud recommend you to
prepare all these questions well.
Take care and all the best.
