    what is the difference between an interface and a class
    give an example of a particularly tough problem you faced and how you solved it (or a piece of code you were particularly proud of)

    Questions about object orientated programming are always very popular in interviews as it's the one subject that all graduates should know.

    What aspect of telecoms have you gained experience in?
    What is the role you are applying for??

    Im asking because the questions asked in a technical interview, particularly for telecoms, can be specialised.....ie if you are going for a position with Ericsson working on a core network product then you'd have to know your SS7 and NGN protocols fairly well.

    If you want to PM me with the details I can let you know pretty much how it will fall.
