I once rejected a senior Java dev who solved every problem. Why? He coded in silence. When I asked “why this approach?”, he shrugged. Interviews reward thinking out loud. Silence looks like guessing, not confidence. Have you ever lost an interview you thought you aced?

@SoufJavaMentor You're absolutely right—I've lost a couple of interviews because I went silent while coding. Lesson learned: thinking out loud is a must. Thanks for the reminder! Will make sure to verbalize my thought process next time. Appreciate the advice!
