I have attended multiple interviews for .NET / ASP.NET Core roles but have not received an offer yet. I have successfully cleared several first-round interviews; however, in the second round, even answering two questions wrong seems to lead to rejection.

With 5 years of experience in .NET, I would appreciate any advice from you.

What strategies, preparation techniques, or areas of focus would you recommend to help crack these interviews?

I've been doing .NET for 23 years and can't get an offer if that gives you any perspective. Being interviewed and rejected by people with half my experience is a tough pill to swallow. This is the most brutal job market I've ever seen.

Finding areas of focus is always going to be difficult because every place you interview at is going to have a different set of priorities. Some places will want to see where you're at with Entity Framework. Some may want to see how well you know what the OAuth flow looks like. You should read the job descriptions carefully and glean what you can from them. But familiarity with basic OOP principles, async/await pattern, and dependency injection is a good start. Not just how you use them, but why.

Did an interview yesterday that was supposed to be behavioral, but turned out to be more like the case interviews I did in undergrad.
