I just finished reading several sections of this book, and I'm surprised that there haven't been more books like this published. The book is organized into sections for the application process, the interviews (behavioral, technical, and soft skills), and post-interview areas like negotiating your salary. Of course, the bulk of the book is about the types of technical questions that could be asked in a C# technical interview. The author breaks them down into Basics, Advanced, Coding Practices (maintainability kind of stuff), .NET Frameworks and Libs, and Coding Challenges.Each section has many questions, and it honestly covers most of what you'll be asked in C# interviews today. I've been on both ends of these interviews (interviewer and interviewee). I'll probably keep this handy for the next time I need to do a tech interview for a position on my team. It's definitely worth checking out if you're conducting interviews or job hunting in the .NET space.

I just finished reading "C# Interview Guide" by Konstantin Semenenko 🇺🇦 and I'm truly and completely amazed with this tome of knowledge!Konstantin Semenenko takes his 18 years of experience as a CTO (Chief Technology Officer) and fellow C# and .NET software developer and crafts a truly amazing book for developers.Every chapter in the book takes an in-depth look of every stage of a developer interview process and gives insight at various stages so developers are well-prepared for almost anything.The book is broken down into 3 parts: the Interview Preparation, the Technical Interview Preparation, and the Post Interview process. Each part is well-designed and extremely well-vetted based on Konstantin's experience in the industry.With Part 1, Konstantin explains the pre-interview process by explaining how to create a great resume and cover letter and how to utilize online platforms like LinkedIn and GitHub to your advantage. His coverage of the types of developer interviews in Chapter 2 are extremely helpful and give developers a "heads-up" as what to expect and how to act during interviews.While the title of this book is called "C# Interview Guide," I felt the amount of "C#" in Part 2 complimented not only the title of the book for the technical preparation of an interview, but to showcase the amount of knowledge and effort Konstantin has had in the industry throughout his 18 years of experience.Part 2 of this book is NOT meant to be passed over. It doesn't matter if you're a beginning developer or an experienced principal architect. The amount of material in here is amazing for developers to review even as a refresher as to what we know and don't know (and possibly what we've forgotten over the years). <smirk>The coverage of questions include such questions about data types, operators, and variables, loops, the basics of OOP, collections, LINQ, exception handling (always a good topic), async/await, lambdas, events, multithreading, and how to write reusable code. I'm not done...It also includes questions about SOLID principles, how to write maintainable code, design patterns, understanding .NET and .NET Core, unit testing, Entity Framework, and yes, even ASP .NET for web development.The last two chapters of Part 2 I feel were equally important: Overcoming challenges while writing code during the interviews and how to mentally prepare for interviews. These two chapters compliment all of Part 2 by not just focusing on the technical, but how to conduct oneself (personally and professionally) as opposed to a warm-blooded person hammering on a keyboard.Part 3, called the Post Interview, is where the hard part begins by negotiating a salary, following up after an interview, tips on evaluating a job offer (any red flags?), feedback on the technical interview (if any), and how to proceed by furthering your career with growth opportunities as a C# developer.Overall, Konstantin wrote a truly exceptional book and I would recommend this book to aspiring developers wanting to further their experience by digging deep into the world of .NET and C#....and I'd also recommend it to experienced C# developers as well.

C# Interview Guide by Konstantin Semenenko was an interesting exploration of .NET through a wide spectrum of interview questions. While no answer was comprehensive, the book as a whole took a very wide look at .NET development and would give the reader a number of things to think about and look into.I personally learned of a few new libraries to dig into and thought about a few language capabilities in different ways. Plus, the book surprised me by mentioning my book, Refactoring with C#, which made me randomly laugh in bemusement aboard a plane. C# Interview Guide is definitely one I'd recommend to folks looking to establish a foothold as a .NET developer or find areas to get deeper in.
