Frequently Asked Questions
What is an object-oriented design interview?
An object-oriented design (OOD) interview is a specialized technical interview used to evaluate your understanding of object-oriented programming principles and your ability to apply these principles to solve design problems. Typically lasting 45-60 minutes, this interview covers the basics of object-oriented programming and more complex concepts such as design principles and patterns. This is crucial for roles at major tech companies like Apple, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon.
