Fresher Profile

I believe you have nothing to worry about, your latest activity is finishing the M.Teck which in my book is all that matters. The gap you had is actually not that uncommon, people pause their education for various reasons, the only problem is that often people do not come back to continue from where they left of...

Now regarding the answer, well the answer that you mentioned (financial reasons) is a good one. Yes they may ask you for some additional details about it so I would advise you to use your own judgement in what to say. For example if it was a living, medical, education or some similar expenses that you were not able to cover then I would say it up front, there is nothing wrong with that. But if it was something that reflects badly on you then it would be wiser to just leave it out and use some superficial answer like "it was a personal, family matter".

Last just to give you some heads up, you should focus more on your appearance (like being polite, communicative, etc.) and on a technical part of an interview rather than on this. I truly believe this is not a factor that will decide if you get a job. Also may I recommend you to check out this site with coding tests for programmers, you can use them to prepare for the interviews.

 

I wish you a good luck on your job hunt!
