What do others say about the "Java/J2EE Job Interview Companion"(Reviews)?Sample chapters

This book is about learning the core concepts and key areas of Java/JEE development through questions and answers approach. This book will be a very valuable companion for all Java/J2EE practitioners and it is evident from the following:

  • "I have read several technical books over the last few years, but this one was entirely different. The questions and answers format was something which I had not seen in any other book and wasn't sure if would help either. But I was wrong. The objective of the authors is great, to help Job seekers as well as interviewers; and I think they have succeeded in doing so. They have compiled several questions and answers, and also have very good tips on how to face an interview." - By Meera Subbarao at IT Book Zone Team Leader

  • Excellent readers' review comments on: Lulu.com (based on both 220+ & 400+ Q&A).

    • "have got a copy of your book last week. It is really an incredible book that I have ever seen. I have seen so many Java books like Deitel, Ivor Horton. They are also good. But the book of yours can give me an overall bird-eye view of the Java Environment together with so many useful questions. I am totally impressed with the way you have learned Java" - Yours Sincerely Ye Tun Oo

How can these books help you?

In my experience, it does not really matter, how many years of experience you have, but what really matters is how much you know and how well you perform to impress your superiors within your organization and/or how well you impress your Java/JEE Job Interviewers.

The contents of this book can help you:

  • progress from just a Java/JEE job to a career in Java/JEE sooner as it helped me to progress from being a mechanical engineer to a senior Java/JEE developer in 3 years and then to a technical lead/designer in 4-5 years.
  • attend more interviews and have increased interview success.
  • get multiple job offers and consequently empowering you to negotiate your salary or rates and pick the ideal job based on the type of role, company, technology used etc.
  • impress your superiors & fellow developers to get the thumbs up in code reviews and performance appraisals.
  • find a job in a tight/difficult job market by becoming a high calibre professional with the know how.
  • hire/short-list quality Java/JEE candidate(s). High calibre Java/JEE candidates should know these core concepts.
  • go places and expand your horizons without feeling stagnated

This is not meant to be a Java/JEE interview/career building cram book. You need to pro-actively learn the core concepts, key areas, tips and strategies in this book and then apply, analyse & experience them to succeed in your career sooner .


4 Step Process

Step 1: Separate yourself from the mob of Java/JEE developers, with an effective resume.

Step 2: Perform well in your interviews.

Step 3: Negotiate your salary. Five Ways To Get A Bigger Paycheck.

Step 4: Pro-actively apply at your job to build "important qualities of a good Java/JEE practitioner" like:

  • Passion to build quality Java/JEE systems by learning the core concepts/key areas.
  • Ability to understand potential failures due to transactional issues, concurrency issues, design issues, etc.
  • Ability to look at things at a high level as well as drill down to details when required.
  • Ability to analyse What if scenarios -- "What if I want to support a non web client?"
  • Ability to think not only from the technology perspective but also from the business perspective.
  • Curiosity to learn (e.g. Emerging technologies like Spring, Hibernate, TDD etc. ).
  • Right attitude (Avoid I know it all attitude) with good soft skills.
  • Grow not just as a techie, but as a well rounded professional.

So, learn not only to "talk the talk" but also to "walk the walk".
