@Divya_Salve

I can provide you with some practical interview scenarios related to web scraping, data extraction, and manipulation, which are commonly used in technical interviews.

-Web Scraping and Data Extraction
-Data Transformation and Manipulation
-API Integration
-Regular Expressions
-Data Analysis and Visualization
-Database Querying
-Error Handling and Robustness

When preparing for technical interviews, it’s essential to practice these scenarios and become familiar with the relevant programming languages, libraries, and tools. Be ready to explain your thought process, communicate your approach, and adapt to changing requirements during the interview.

Hi @Divya_Salve

In one of my Interview questions they have asked like this :
→ Scenario 1 : If your Project runs perfect Today and Tomorrow you may Encounter Error bcz of change in position of submit button or any other reason then what would u do?

→ Scenario 2 : We have a simple website to open and enter the details of Username, Pw and Submit button to Login what are the activities we use here ? and also there are 2 diff error cases
Case1 - How would you the know that the Pw is wrong & How you handle this issue ?
Case2 - How would you know that the page is Loaded Successfully or Not and proceed further ?
