Many .NET developers prepare for interviews by studying definitions.

They learn what Dependency Injection is. They learn what middleware is. They learn what async and await are. They learn what Web API, Entity Framework, SQL Server, SOLID principles, and design patterns mean.

Not because they don't know anything.

They fail because their answers sound like documentation.

They explain concepts like they copied them from a book, tutorial, or official documentation.

They are checking whether you can think like an engineer.

That is the real difference.
