Did you know that mastering Data Structures & Algorithms (DSA) is the secret weapon to cracking top tech interviews? ๐Ÿš€ But thatโ€™s just the beginning!

Week 1: Building the Foundation
โ†ณ Choose your programming language (C++, Java, Python) and master the fundamentals
โ†ณ Begin with basic DSA concepts: Arrays and Strings
โ†ณ Start practicing simple coding problems

Week 2: Core DSA Deep Dive
โ†ณ Master fundamental data structures: Linked Lists, Stacks, Queues, and Trees
โ†ณ Practice daily on platforms like LeetCode or GeeksforGeeks
โ†ณ Focus on pattern recognition in problems

Week 3: Advanced Concepts
โ†ณ Tackle complex algorithms: Dynamic Programming, Graphs, and Backtracking
โ†ณ Start mock interviews to build confidence
โ†ณ Work on problem-solving speed and efficiency

Week 4: Final Sprint
โ†ณ Review essential CS subjects: Operating Systems, DBMS, Computer Networks
โ†ณ Polish your soft skills
โ†ณ Prepare for HR rounds with common interview questions

Key Success Factors:
โ†ณ 80% of tech companies prioritize DSA skills in interviews
โ†ณ Breaking preparation into weekly milestones makes the journey manageable
โ†ณ Consistency and daily practice are crucial for success

Remember, preparation is not just about coding โ€” itโ€™s about building confidence through structured practice! ๐Ÿ’ก
