"Santosh's dedication to mastering the fundamentals of JavaScript before jumping into frameworks is what set him apart. During our 1:1 sessions, he consistently asked probing questions about component architecture and performance optimization. He didn't just want to build; he wanted to understand how things worked under the hood. That curiosity is the true hallmark of a skilled web developer, and it's exactly why he excelled in his interviews."
