I'm a second-year computer science student who has made it to the final stage of a placement interview. The interview process consists of a logical thinking test, a group activity, and an interview with the company's representatives.
I'm looking for tips on how to prepare for these three components of the interview and what I should expect from them. Specifically, I'm wondering:
What kinds of questions are typically asked in a placement interview for a computer science student? How can I prepare for these questions?
How can I improve my logical thinking skills to do well in the test?
What are some strategies for excelling in the group activity? How can I be a team player and also stand out from the rest of the group?
What are some common mistakes that students make during placement interviews, and how can I avoid them?
What are some good ways to follow up after the interview, and when should I do so?
I'm eager to hear any advice or tips from people who have gone through a similar process or from recruiters who have conducted placement interviews in the past. Thanks in advance!
Am really confused about my assessment day and want to get advice from experts

I'm genuinely interested in how much traffic has ended up redirected to ChatGPT since it's blown up.
Personally, I have found myself going to it for simple questions and now relatively infrequently have been visiting stack overflow. However I do not have the sufficient access to stackoverflow analytics to access this data.
Yes, I know it's not a direct code related question, but I expect this would be of interest to many on here.

I would to know which one choose MarkLogic vs MongoDB, I know its properties but in term of learning which one is more acceptable to choose? I have chosen MarkLogic but I think it's difficult to learn because it has a lot of documentation and it hasn't much comunity developers.
I have to choose one option for project our company and my boss is worried about MarkLogic's curve learning.
Help me which one choose.
Disclosure: I work for MarkLogic.
You mention your concern about learning how to work with MarkLogic. We have a MarkLogic University team that has excellent training resources. Take a look at their Developer Track courses. These courses are free and are available with in-person, via-Internet, or self-paced formats. Once you've learned the basics, you can follow that up with tutorials, the technical blog, On Demand videos, guides, and maybe a local Meetup, based on your needs. Our community may not be as big, but those who work with MarkLogic tend to be very helpful. You can post specific technical questions here on Stack Overflow.
The bigger question is what do you need from your database? For that, I'll join #Tamas in referring to his article comparing the two.

We are a small team of developers and are currently in the process of drafting a business idea targeting scala developers as potential customers. In order to convince investors we obviously need some numbers on usage, some of which we were unable to find:
While there is a list of companies listed at typesafe.com we were not able to find out what they actually do with Scala and what the total market share of Scala is.
The TIOBE Index lists scala as the 29th most popular (?) language but the methods seem questionable and it seems hard to find out what that means for the real world. Are there any surveys where developers were actually asked what they use, which involve less guessing? (Possibly even in a commercial context)
For us it would be great to be able to print some (preferably exponential) curves on the development of Scala usage in the last years. While that is how we feel that scala is spreading we dont have anything to proove it.
Is there any evidence on scala beeing popular in the financial sector or other specific areas? For example, there seems to be some kind of a "Scala hotspot" in the financial district of London and it would be great to proove that.
Any hints on citeable surveys and studies would be awesome!
this won't tell you how many people are using it, but is a good indicator of trending technologies, as oposed to TIOBE, which rates any tech invented since the wheel
RedMonk uses github + stackoverflow
Scala is indeed popular in Finance in London. We are using it for our projects in a Front Office department in a major investment bank.

What is the best way to write the system requirement specification. Definition is given to me. project scope is very heavy.
Which model should i approach to get the detailed requirement from the client ?
Which are the common mistakes while gathering information from client and writing specification ?
Help appreciated.
First of all, you have to have a background in requirements engineering. As a start, look at the Volere templates, that help to organize the requirements in a meaningful way. The authors (the Robertsons) have written a book "Mastering the Requirements Process" (ISBN: 978-0321419491), but there are of course a lot of other authors.
There are a lot of techniques to get requirements from the customer, and it depends on how the customer behaves, in which area he is under way, and how much experiences he has there. It is not possible to give here any advice.
I don't think that there is a list of common mistakes that could help you in any way. Get an experienced requirements engineer, and follow his steps.

I recently read through Code Complete, and it recommends that I create a project specification before actually coding.
The book didn't go very far into detail about what 'specs' are, and how they are made. Because this is a crucial part of software development, I would like to know how to create quality specs that are not too exhaustive.
Where can I learn more about software specifications? Or any of the other prerequisites outlined in Code Complete?
Here's Joel's article on Function Design documents.

If you are looking for books, I can recommend two right now, and in fact, I ordered a third because it looked good.
The two I can recommend fully are:
Software Requirements (2nd Edition)
More about Software Requirements
I also ordered a third book:
Software Requirements Patterns
Joel Spolsky posted the functional spec to his CoPilot application along with a brief blog post about it.
