Choice of language for Andorid Dev Interview

As a Android Dev my default language choices are set to Java, C++ and Kotlin. From your experience for a technical interview was there any requirement to write the code only in Java or C++ or Kotlin? I am doing LC in Python. Just want to make sure that it wont be a problem in an actual interview.

Not the entire app, just the native/JNI components

Those who don’t want cross platform support for their app. Amazon writes their business logic twice?

If you preparing for Android interview, I would say choose either Java or Kotlin for LC. Facebook does only Java however most other companies will give you an option to choose between Java and Kotlin.

Ask your recruiter, don’t rely on randoms for your future. I can tell you language does matter for me but for some it matters. Best to make sure wherever you interview.

I did all my LC and interviews in Kotlin. You just have to be aware of hidden time complexity costs for built in extensions or when doing anything functional
