Really practical breakdown, especially the Day 4 walkthrough with a recording. A few things I'd add for Python rounds in India:
- For every OA problem, prepare a one-line "why this data structure" answer. In the follow-up round interviewers often reopen your OA code and ask why you used a dict instead of a list, or a generator instead of a list comprehension.
- For the Django/DRF part, practise tracing one request end to end out loud: URL conf, view or viewset, serializer validation, model save, response, and where JWT authentication sits in that chain. That single trace covers most of the conceptual questions.
- When you hit an error in live coding, read the traceback from the bottom up out loud before touching the code. It shows debugging discipline, which is often what is actually being scored.
Disclosure: I work on Linkjob AI, an interview copilot app, so I spend a lot of time looking at where candidates stall in these rounds.
