In this roadmap, we’ll break down the important topics into manageable sections, covering Data Structures & Algorithms (DSA), Android fundamentals, and behavioural questions.

⭐️ To make your preparation easier, all the recommended resources and links for each section are provided, so you’ll know exactly where to focus your efforts. ⭐️

And with a clear plan, you can confidently tackle each section to become a strong candidate for any Android Developer role!

So gear up! And let’s get started 💪🏻

Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA)

While Android development isn’t DSA-heavy compared to other software roles, you should have good problem-solving skills. Focus on basics that frequently come up in interviews.

🌟 Key Areas to Focus:

  • Arrays

🐼 Instantiating an array, ArrayList, LinkedList, 2-d Arrays
🐼 Performing searches in Array and List — Linear Search, Binary Search
🐼 Sorting algortihms

Some basic questions you can practice —
🐼 Kadane’s algortihm, Sliding window technique, Stock problem
🐼 Trapping rain water, chocolate distribution problem, factorial of a large no. , square root of an integer, etc

  • Strings

🐼 Reverse a string, palindrome, find duplicate characters, count and say problem, balanced parenthesis, print all anagrams together, Rabin Karp algorithm, KMP Algo.

  • Linked Lists: Understand the structure of singly and doubly linked lists. Work on operations like adding, deleting, reversing, and finding elements in linked lists.
