I had an excellent LLD mock interview with Ankit. His questions closely mirrored real interview scenarios and challenged me to think deeply about design decisions, scalability, and object-oriented principles. What stood out most was his detailed feedback—he not only pointed out areas for improvement but also explained alternative approaches and industry best practices. The session significantly improved my confidence and helped me better understand what interviewers look for in LLD rounds. Highly recommended for anyone preparing for software engineering interviews.
