This is the story of the time I interviewed at Ubisoft.

When I was a teenager, I became obsessed with the Bioshock series and got it into my head that I wanted to do game design for a living. I'd never seriously attempted it nor did I know exactly what it entailed, but how hard could it be? I gamed!! I had ideas!! I said this to my teacher during a what do you want to be when you grow up talk, and she said, "Oh! My sister works at Ubisoft Singapore. I'll get you an interview."

Emails were exchanged, and someone at the company arranged a "quick chat" with me a couple of weeks later. It was for a QA tester intern position, which I reasoned was sort of like game design. After all, in the Sims 3 it's one rung on the ladder to becoming a game developer. Also I didn't want to anger my teacher. She was quite volatile.

Round 1:

I'd never done a job interview before. I put on a nice blouse and pencil skirt and heels, nervously applied and reapplied makeup which I normally did not wear, and showed up at the office building an hour early. Then as I went up the elevator I realised they never said what room it was. I couldn't very well email to ask now. I'd look like an idiot!! Fuck!! So for an hour, I just skulked around outside various glass doors peering into offices hoping there would be some receptionist around to ask, but there was practically no one there. The email only said "let's have a quick chat at 2pm on x date".

I was about to slink home with my tail between my legs when the interviewer called at the scheduled time. It was a phone interview!!!!! He didn't say that!!!!! I found a dingy secluded stairwell. As if to taunt me, one of the first questions he asked was "have you ever been to the building?"

Me, through gritted teeth: yeah! actually I'm here right now, haha... to scope it out, you know... get a lay of the land..... it's really big... Lots of glass walls...

Him: oh that's nice.

I don't remember most of the questions, but I do know he asked me what my favourite games were. I said Undertale and Life is Strange (they had come out that year), but he'd never heard of them. Maybe I should've said Far Cry or something but what if he quizzed me on it?

Round 2:

I should not have made it to this round. I was coasting entirely on the goodwill of my teacher's sister, who was high up the chain. She interviewed me next. I think her only question was whether I would be okay working long gruelling hours with little support and no overtime.

Me, blissfully unaware of crunch culture being a massive human rights issue in the industry: bring it on!!

Her: what? 🤨

Then she ushered me into a room to take a pencil and paper test. While waiting earlier, I'd frantically googled and memorised a bunch of Ubisoft games, so I could answer the one asking me to list eight of them. I figured I could have gotten away with saying Assassin's Creed and adding a random number to the back though.

The biggest problem was on the other side of the paper: a diagram of a gaming controller asking me to label the buttons. Here's the thing. I'm a PC gamer. Always have been. At the time, my only experience with console gaming was playing Little Big Planet with my best friend when I was twelve, at her house. And I wasn't very good at it! I think I fundamentally lack the hand-eye coordination for console gaming, but that's just a guess because I can count on one hand the number of times I've ever used a controller. And I can count on one hand the number of controllers I have in that hand! It's zero! I knew the wiggly antennae were for movement and the buttons on the sides did esoteric things that people will yell at you to press during crucial moments, but that was it. I ended up labelling the buttons the shapes they were (circle button, triangle button, square button etc).

The interviewer came back into the room after about 15 minutes and said I now had an hour to play an unfinished level of Assassin's Creed, identify as many bugs as possible, and record them on a spreadsheet. And even though she set me up at a computer monitor, I still had to use a controller. Are you kidding me! This was the Victorian era Assassin's Creed. I had never played any AC games before, so I didn't know what were bugs and what were features. Was "can't jump" a bug? Was "invisible wall surrounding staircases"? What was the format and lingo you were supposed to use when recording bugs? I made no progress towards the quest at all (I did not understand it or who my character was), just wandered around and wrote down things I noticed and didn't like until time was up.

Anyway, that's the tale of how I didn't get a job I was woefully unprepared and underqualified for and in retrospect didn't want all that much. Maybe what I really wanted was to be... was Ayn Rand.

[yyako]

It seems like Bruce from Pixel Sprout is finally in damage control mode. So I'll just say this:

It's really his word against mine as to how well his staff are getting paid, and if you really want to believe when Bruce says "everyone receives competitive US-based pay" I can't stop you. But I know how much my partner made and I know he was earning less than me in the fairly nonspecialized role of QA, and I know my partner's been contacted by other artists who confessed they were earning the same or less.

It's important to some people but for me it was never about the pay, anyway. For me it was about credits.

And you had two fucking years since my initial post to make this right. You repeatedly ignored me asking nicely in your discord. You ignored dozens of people asking over and over again when and where the credits were coming. You kept saying the made-up phrase "they're coming in priority order" for half a year when it became clear that the question wasn't going away on its own. Now you're making the shitty compromise to list your team on your website, something I and others suggested a year and a half ago, and you don't even put it on the website yet. Sorry but no. I don't accept this as sufficient anymore.

I'm mad about this because I've now heard more stories about how you treat your staff, and none of it is good. Not one artist I've talked to has had a good experience at Pixel Sprout. There's whisper networks against you, man. You've fucked up.

P.S. Calling your next Sun Haven update "2.0" misunderstands how software versioning works and makes you look like a clown.

P.P.S. Retire that "smile points" question for your interviews, that also makes you look like a clown.

more p4 stuff from atlus express

before the rls of p4, hashino did 2 qa things on atlus express, answering fan submitted questions. unfortunately most of his answers are like "please wait until the game comes out, ha ha", so i picked out the bits where he gave more substantial responses.

why does p4 take place in a rural city?

hashino: because it matches the mystery/suspense story. additionally, the rural area that p4 takes place in is depicted not only through the positive lens of idyllic scenery you would find in a sightseeing brochure, but also through the negative aspect of it being this overly stereotypical provincial city where the local neighborhood shopping district is dying out due to the arrival of a large supermarket.

why do the MCs have mad drip despite living in hicksville dress so stylishly despite living in a rural area?

hashino: i wonder why indeed, haha. actually, there is a large city thats near inaba in the game (okina, i assume). its not like this is officially part of the lore/world building, but i would imagine that some of the characters shop there. and since yosuke's dad runs the junes store, he probably gets his clothes there, or his dad forces him to.

p3's protag used orpheus, and p4's protag uses izanagi. both of their myths involve a return / revival from the afterworld. is death a central theme in p4 as well?

hashino: p4 is a YA story depicting coming of age.

since this is a mystery game, do you have to guess the culprit, or will the culprit be revealed (as part of the story)?

hashino: unlike in mystery novels, the plot doesn't necessarily get laid out / explained to you as you read along, so at times, the player will have to make decisions -- including figuring out the culprit -- in order to proceed.

about yellow as the image color

hashino: soejima picked yellow to match the countryside setting. like it evokes nostalgia. it's a color for flowers, elementary school kids hats, the rural scenery. but it's also used as a warning color, which fits with the murders.

(in another interview, soejima says yellow is also associated with happiness because there's a jp movie called "the yellow handkerchief of happiness.)

what's the #1 selling point about persona 4?

hashino: hum hum. if i have to pick only one, then this is a bit abstract, but it's the atmosphere.

(or, since it's 2025, maybe pretend he said "vibes".)

Revisiting Staff Only after Updates

I'm trying to establish who has written all of the notes around Staff Only, and what that means for the story. 

We seem to have 5 options on who could have written the notes: 

WHRP/W 

QA 

QA’s Staff 

Wally 

Other neighbors 

QA seems to have written the notes about the pranks and the notes around telling coworkers to stop messing with stuff.   

The it must be a prank journal entry 

Notes that say “do not write in this book” about the WHRP notebook and their own 

The blacklight notes—I think the all caps is for sure QA, but I'm not sure on all of the notes. 

Lowercase blacklight notes:

This is an interview with questions between QA and the WHRP, but I’m not sure that I could determine for certain which is which.  This email says March 13, and is from the QA to WHRP.  Top line is from and the next is to (checked my email just to be sure).  However, if it were a response, the only way to be certain from just the top of this document--we’d need to see the title.  If it is a response, it should have “Re:” at the beginning.  It is common for a list of questions like this for someone to hit “respond” and then answer the questions beneath each question, for simplicity and clarity.  The use of italics on the question and regular on the answer is a common thing to do, separating the question from the response.   

But if this were WHRP’s response, you’d expect to see WHRP on the top and then QA on the bottom.  Generally, even if it is a response, it is going to have the most recent one on top.  Based on the answers, though, I would guess that WHRP is answering here, because the question specifically asks “how you found one of these pieces” and we know that QA did not “find” any of the original pieces.  Neither did W technically, but QA wouldn’t know that. 

Using this logic, we have an email response from WHRP to QA, which is then printed.  There is no fold to the email like it was mailed, and why would you mail an email response?  This means the only way that this hidden message was added would be at the Playfellow Exhibition space.  So the thing that makes the most sense, given the answer, is that QA is answering their own question in the invisible ink, a staff member wrote it, or Wally  or another neighbor wrote it. 

Wally feels less likely.  We have no indication that Wally is affected by the black stuff.  We do see fingerpainting like marks in the red journal, so maybe indicating that Wally can get covered in it.  Taking Wally as the writer off the table for now, I would assume there are two possibilities: 

1) QA is writing most or all of these messages without realizing it/under power/automatic writing 

2)  Someone on the staff is writing these messages 

I could be going about this all wrong, given that the hidden text reads like the hidden text on the website, “but it hurts” and “the numbers are so hard to read sometimes I can’t see them.”  Also, “When I unwrapped the first letter, I felt it. I heard it. Open. Open. Open .” This text is “everything is so disgusting to touch.  Sometimes the mail doesn’t come for days. I want to rip into everything that I have. My head feels so muddled too.  Ever since I opened that envelope.”  This fits either WHRP or QA, but we are working under the assumption that WHRP could not have physically written the hidden message. QA does mention in an email how quickly they have received the materials, so it stands to reason that WHRP is the more likely author, but the physical reality is still a problem.

So what about the opposite (QA wrote the secret notes on the website)? We know that the QA has access to alter the website, based on Staff Only.   W is very clear that QA did that and questions what happened to make them go crazy. When did WHRP announce the QA?   

3/21/23--QA is announced on the home page “website updates” box (Not there on Jan of 2023) 

July 2022-January 2023, there is only a webpage, the neighborhood, and the guestbook.  So the first instance of the QA mentioned is as we start to see secret messages pop up (the hidden text, not the guestbook drawings, which pre-date QA’s mention), since the page didn’t exist before.  Potentially, QA could have been writing the secret messages on the website from the beginning. (Who is responsible for the letters shifted out of place?)  

Basically from the beginning of the About Us page, QA had access.  On some level, I guess we could assume it was either or both of them, as they are writing the same kind of thing.  Brightly colored envelopes, dizziness and headaches, a building obsession with the material—it kind of doesn’t matter.  The only big material difference is that QA seems to have cracked up by documenting all of the supernatural stuff taking place, while W has become a completely obsessed shut-in on the verge of losing their sight and later turns to documenting the supernatural stuff.  (Could this be related to the blacklight?) 

If I’m going to take it more narratively, and less logically, given the timing and things, I would assume that the “I am so sorry” is either W or QA feeling bad for the people that they have exposed to this ick, while knowing that it was dangerous.  We’ve had WHRP suggesting that this isn’t harmful, but I think that is just willful ignorance on their part.  They knew enough to warn QA, so they know it is bad.  Plus, we see them wearing the gloves with the Joy bottle and with the early image of Julie’s siblings.  And then they drank right out of the bottle, so way to go W.  I think that QA has insisted on the gloves, as is seen in the note on the table: 

They stress the importance of wearing the gloves, “call me if we run out!!!” Plus, we have a used glove on the table covered in black stuff. But they very obviously have ignored the instruction to send back stuff covered in the black, as it is all over the walls and floor, with tendril-like black things around the table. (oh! I have always thought that those tendrils looked like yarn and assumed it was an issue of access to different materials, but given our black flower appears to be made partially of yarn, I wonder if this is more purposeful?)  I’d still like to come back to explore the whole paint roller/paint situation in the staff room. 

The writing in journals that QA is referring to when leaving the passive aggressive notes: 

The House that Home, I think.  Then You You.  Of course, black streaks in the book as well.  They look like fingers. 

With this example, I’d definitely think this is Wally or someone possessed by Wally.  Since we don’t even really know if there are more than QA on the exhibit team, we can’t rule out automatic writing/possession by Wally.  If it is Wally, I would assume this was Wally trying to reach WHRP, unless it wasn’t there when QA first got it.  I think it would be safe to consider anything done in crayon to be Wally. 

I’m just confusing myself more as we go.  Things we can establish through QA’s notes: 

Condition of the book:  W’s journal appears to be written in by someone other than the original author.  We can guess that QA’s notes mean that they at least believe that those weren’t there when the book arrived 

Don’t write in my journal:  Written by QA for sure.  We have no proof of anyone writing in their journal, but it could be labeling everything that they shouldn’t do, because their staff appears to be rebelling—at least in QA’s mind. 

I am going to assume there is a staff.  We don’t have any indicators that this isn’t true, and QA writing notes to an imaginary staff seems a bit out of the expected. 

The questions in the email are answered by WHRP.  This means that WHRP is being very professional and definitely not indicating something is wrong.  It makes very little to no sense that WHRP would have the access to provide the secret writing on the email, so I’m assuming that is QA.  Potentially the staff is all infected, I would assume so.  I don’t think it makes much sense narratively for the staff to write secret language on things like we see.  I suppose it doesn’t matter too much whether it is QA or staff, just QA’s/staff’s level of paranoia is important.   This means that either QA or their staff or both are experiencing the symptoms that WHRP is also experiencing based on touching the black stuff.  I have written a theory about this in the past, on tropes related to black goo and contagion.  The symptoms that we see are:  potential automatic writing, anger, violent tendencies, nausea, forgetfulness, paranoia, auditory hallucinations 

Part 2 coming.

[mio-the-clown]

I wanna talk about a few things that caught my attention!

These two statements back to back seem contradictory no? Except..

Funny to call the drawings bugs when every ‘Bug’ on the website has been snippets of the puppet show. Vital information that the WHRP team has been scrounging many years for.

Those Bugs aren’t acknowledged by the Restoration Team.

But the drawings are. The drawings we know are put there by Wally. It’s funny they call them Bugs because they mean pest, glitch, an anomaly.

But it wouldn’t be a beautiful home (website) without some kind of nuisance.

They know something’s wrong, with whatever oozing festering putrid substance infects each little pice of information they get. And yet they still continue… Everyone is so so desperate for answers. (This curiosity is gonna kill someone for sure)

It’s said that very very few remember Welcome Home at all. So what about The Question Answerer.

They who answered the call [of the ever-ringing phone].. and who seemingly remembers Welcome Home like an… Old Friend

Sure, Wally seems to enrapture people with just a glance. (That interview gave me MAJOR creepy vibes.. I mean who asks a children’s show puppet about romance with such a strange inflection??)

Maybe it’s just how times were or maybe… there was something else going on to spur such questioning….? I ponder.

But it’s just the way they say- “looking into his sweet eyes” and hearing [his] cute little phone ring again. There’s history there.. oh the QA definitely knows something many don’t. But they sound too caught up in the throes of nostalgia to be taking it as seriously as a certain someone else is. (Or maybe they’re influenced?)

I don’t know who this is but they are NOT happy to be doing this.

To me it sounds like they think it’s their job to answer the guestbook. When it’s supposed to just be a fun little interactive page for a fun project. Someplace people can just stop by and say whatever.

But they take what we say to heart and are disgruntled by it. “Why would you put me in this position?” “What are you people doing to me by trying to interact with the puppet show?”

You would think by now the Team would have found the file names for the drawings like we had and discerned that Wally is messing with the website. I mean, it does seem like the rest of team knows this except for whoever made this update.

… but this person too is plagued by constant ringing. We know Wally is desperately calling out to people. But I’m inclined to believe that those who hear the ringing are not random. You hear the call for a reason.

Do I know what any of this means? Naw It’s just my observation.

Your input/ thoughts are welcome!

[askagamedev]

Is there much of a difference between a digital media degree and a game design degree when it comes to applying for jobs within the gaming sector?

Or is it dependent on the role you are applying for?

There is a difference between having a degree and not having one in a relevant field, but it isn't as important as one might think. The kind of degree you hold really only matters for the initial application round, where the recruiters sift through all of the applications and decide who gets callbacks and who gets dropped. This is because, realistically, we can't call every applicant back for each open position. Large studios like Blizzard or Riot often have literal hundreds of applications for open positions, and calling everyone back would take an army of recruiters.

This means that recruiters are reliant on the presence of certain keywords in the resume/CV for that candidate to pass to the next round. "BA in Game Design" ticks a box that "BA in Digital Media" likely won't, though the kind of degree is only one of many keywords we're looking for. We're ultimately looking for candidates who can do the work that the job entails - cinematic designer, gameplay programmer, texture artist, associate producer, QA engineer, and so on. The degree is an indicator that a candidate might be able to do the job, but is not a full guarantee - that's what the additional rounds of interviewing and testing are for.

As such, I encourage job seekers to tailor their resume/CV to the role they are applying for - the descriptions of any project and work experience should show how those experiences would carry over to the job that we're hiring for. This should both maximize the chances of keyword hits as well as persuade the humans who read the resume/CV that you're a good fit for the position because you already know how to do the work and have been doing similar work in the past.

If any of you out there want specific assistance with your resume/CV, I would heavily suggest joining our discord server and asking, or reaching out to me privately via TwitterX or Bluesky. There are many experienced developers (including hiring managers) on our Discord who can provide resume/CV advice, and I've done a lot of resume/CV reviews personally as well (both as a hiring manager and for the readers of my blog). [Click here for an example of a CV review] I did for an entry-level gameplay programmer. If you don't want your stuff made public, you don't have to. I promise we'll still help you with the CV.

Section-Wise Difficulty Analysis of RBI Grade B Previous Year Papers

Accessing and analyzing the RBI Grade B previous year question paper is one of the smartest steps aspirants can take during their preparation. These papers offer valuable insights into the exam’s evolving pattern, question trends, and, most importantly, the section-wise difficulty level that has been witnessed across the years.

The RBI Grade B examination, conducted in three stages—Phase 1, Phase 2, and Interview, evaluates candidates on a broad range of topics including reasoning, quantitative aptitude, economics, finance, and general awareness. Each stage and section poses a different challenge, and understanding these difficulties helps tailor preparation strategies effectively.

This article breaks down each section, based on real analysis from past 5–6 years' papers, highlighting difficulty trends and what aspirants should focus on.

Phase 1: Objective-Type Screening Round

1. General Awareness (GA)

Weightage: 80 questions (80 marks)

Time allocation: ~25–30 minutes recommended

Difficulty Level: Moderate to Difficult Over the years, the GA section has become the game-changer in Phase 1. The focus has shifted from static GK to dynamic current affairs, especially related to:

RBI Circulars

Government Schemes

Financial and economic news

Reports and indices

International summits

Trend Analysis: From 2019 onwards, nearly 70% of questions are current-affairs-based (last 4–6 months), with a significant weightage on banking and economy-specific updates.

Tip: Prioritize RBI’s official publications, PIB, and monthly current affairs digests. Edutap’s compilations offer filtered RBI-centric material for targeted prep.

2. Quantitative Aptitude (QA)

Weightage: 30 questions (30 marks)

Difficulty Level: Moderate The QA section often includes:

Data Interpretation (DI) – Pie Charts, Tables, Line Graphs

Arithmetic – Time & Work, Profit & Loss, SI/CI, Averages

How to Know If Your English to Assamese Translation Project Is Working?

So, you have finished translating from English to Assamese. Awesome! But here's the actual question: Did it work? Did it give your business, users, or team what they needed?

You can't just assume that it did. You need something tangible to go by to properly know how well your translation effort did. That's where KPIs, or key performance indicators, help you to keep track. They help you keep track of your progress, find areas that need work, and make future projects run more smoothly.

Let's talk about which KPIs are important when doing English to Assamese translation of information, whether it's for a website, an app, a document, or something else.

1. Is the Translation Accurate Enough?

Accuracy is where it all begins. If the meaning changes or if a sentence sounds weird in Assamese, users notice.

You don’t need a complex system here. Just get a few bilingual reviewers to check samples of the content. Ask: Does it feel natural? Is the message the same? Are any cultural nuances off?

If you’re getting 95% or more accuracy in these reviews, you're doing fine. Anything below that might need a second look, maybe better tools or updated glossaries.

2. How Fast Was It Done?

Speed matters more than people think. If your Assamese version of the app or announcement shows up days after the English one, that’s a problem.

Track how long it took from the time the original content was ready to when the Assamese version went live. Faster doesn’t always mean better, but a long delay can mean workflow issues, tool problems, or a bottleneck in approvals.

3. What Did It Cost per Word?

Budgets aren’t endless, so knowing your cost per word is important. Divide your total spend by the number of words translated. This gives you a basic idea of your translation efficiency.

Some content may cost more, legal documents or medical content, for example. But if your costs keep climbing without better output, it’s time to review your setup.

4. Was Editing a Nightmare?

If you’re using any AI or machine translation tools, another smart KPI is how much editing was needed after the first draft. This is often called post-editing effort.

Less editing means your tool is doing a good job. If your editors are rewriting most of the content, you might be better off switching tech or retraining your system.

5. Did Users Like It?

Here’s one that people often skip: Ask your users. Native Assamese speakers using your app, reading your blog, or watching your video will instantly know if something feels off.

A quick user poll, app review section, or even one-on-one interviews can tell you a lot. If feedback is positive, your team nailed it. If it’s mixed or negative, that’s your cue to dig deeper.

6. How Many Times Was It Sent Back?

It's not a good sign if your QA team or customer keeps sending translations back.

Keep track of how many files or tasks need to be redone. If your rejection rate is modest, ideally under 5%, you are doing well. If the rate is higher, see if the problem is with the brief, the translator, or the technology.

7. What percentage of the work was finished?

English to Assamese Translation might happen in steps at times. You could have 10 pages of English content but only 6 pages of Assamese content. That's fine during rollouts, but it's a good idea to keep watch.

Look at how much English content there is compared to how much Assamese content there is now. This helps you feel like you're making progress on the project and that you're reaching your goals.

Conclusion

Just because you finished a translation job doesn't guarantee it worked. Looking at results, quality, speed, cost, user reaction, and becoming better over time is how you really succeed.

Don't skip these KPIs if you want to reach Assamese-speaking users. They will help you understand things, point you in the right direction, and get better results all around.

Crack the Code: Why Learning Java Is Still One of the Smartest Career Moves in 2025

In a world of constantly changing tech trends—where Python, Kotlin, and JavaScript dominate discussions—Java continues to stand strong. And if you're a student or fresher looking to enter the tech industry, learning Java might just be your smartest investment yet.

Why? Because Java is everywhere. From Android apps to enterprise systems, banking software to back-end platforms—Java powers millions of applications used daily. And the demand for skilled Java developers isn't just staying steady; it's growing.

In 2025, Java remains a gateway to building a robust, long-lasting career in software development. And thanks to platforms like Beep, students now have access to hands-on, Java programming courses for beginners that are affordable, practical, and job-oriented.

Why Java Still Rules the Backend World

Some people wrongly assume Java is “old school.” But ask any senior developer, and you’ll hear the same thing: Java is battle-tested, secure, and versatile.

Here’s why companies continue to prefer Java:

Scalability: Perfect for high-traffic apps and large databases

Platform independence: “Write once, run anywhere” is still relevant

Community support: Millions of developers worldwide

Enterprise adoption: Banks, telecoms, logistics firms, and even startups love Java’s stability

Whether you're building a mobile app or designing a cloud-based ERP, Java offers the tools to scale and succeed.

What Makes Java Perfect for Beginners

You don’t need to be an expert to start with Java. In fact, many colleges use Java as a foundation for teaching object-oriented programming (OOP).

As a beginner, you’ll gain core skills that apply across languages:

Variables, data types, control structures

Classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism

File handling, exception management

Basic UI development using JavaFX or Swing

Introduction to frameworks like Spring (as you advance)

This foundation makes it easier to switch to more specialized stacks later (like Android or Spring Boot) or even pick up other languages like Python or C#.

Where to Start Learning Java the Right Way

While YouTube and free tutorials are good for browsing, structured learning is better for job-readiness. That’s why Beep offers a beginner-friendly Java programming course that’s designed specifically for students and freshers.

What makes this course ideal:

It covers both basic and intermediate concepts

You build real-world projects along the way

You learn how Java is used in interviews and job scenarios

You get certified upon completion—great for your resume

It’s flexible and can be completed alongside college or internship schedules

And if you’re aiming for backend developer jobs, this certification is a strong step in the right direction.

How Java Helps You Land Jobs Faster

Hiring managers love candidates who know Java for one simple reason—it’s practical.

Java-trained freshers can apply for roles like:

Junior Software Developer

Backend Developer

QA Engineer (Automation Testing)

Android App Developer

Support Engineer (Java-based systems)

These roles often mention Java and SQL as core requirements, making it easier for you to stand out if you’ve completed a course and built some small projects.

Explore the latest jobs for freshers in India on Beep that list Java among the top preferred skills.

Build Projects, Not Just Skills

To truly master Java—and get noticed—you need to build and share your work. Here are some beginner-friendly project ideas:

Student registration portal

Simple inventory management system

Expense tracker

Quiz game using JavaFX

File encryption/decryption tool

Host these on GitHub and add them to your resume. Recruiters love seeing what you’ve created, not just what you’ve studied.

What About Java vs. Python?

This is a common question among freshers: Should I learn Java or Python?

The answer: learn based on your goals.

Want to work in data science or AI? Python is ideal.

Want to build robust applications, Android apps, or work in enterprise systems? Java is your best bet.

Also, once you understand Java, learning Python becomes easier. So why not start with the tougher but more rewarding path?

How to Prepare for Java Interviews

Once you’ve got the basics down and completed a project or two, start preparing for interviews with:

Practice problems on platforms like LeetCode or HackerRank

Study key Java topics: Collections, OOP principles, exception handling

Learn basic SQL (many Java jobs also require DB interaction)

Brush up on scenario-based questions

You can also check out Beep’s resources for interview prep alongside your course content.

Final Thoughts: Learn Once, Earn Always

Learning Java isn’t just about getting your first job—it’s about building a lifelong skill. Java has been around for over two decades, and it’s not going anywhere. From web to mobile to enterprise, Java developers are always in demand.

So if you're ready to start your tech journey, don't chase trends. Build a solid base. Start with the best Java course for beginners, practice consistently, and apply with confidence. Because a well-written Java application—and resume—can open more doors than you think.
