    System.out.println("5. Not tailoring responses to coding background and hobbies: Make sure to relate your experiences and skills to your coding background and hobbies. For example, if you enjoy reading, you can discuss how it has improved your analytical and problem-solving skills.");

    System.out.println("6. Lack of self-awareness: Be aware of your strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement. This will help you provide honest and genuine responses that demonstrate self-awareness.");
