Since many Salesforce applications are developed using Java. can you tell me what the key elements of the Java programming language are ?
This is the type of question an interviewer at Salesforce will use to begin the conversation, learn more about your background, and collect information they can use throughout the interview. This question also provides you the opportunity to direct the interview towards a subject area that you are familiar with and comfortable responding to questions about. Throughout the interview, keep your answers brief and to the point. This will encourage the interviewer to ask follow-up questions about the same topic or move on to a new subject.
"There are several key features of the Java programming language. First, it is simple to learn. Next, Java is somewhat object-oriented and enables programmers to manage their code using objects. Several other key features of Java include its portability, platform independence, security, and the large library of code available to programmers."
Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Java is an object-oriented language that allows the use of objects to store behavior and data. It is platform-independent, so it does not depend on a singular OS to run. Java is a simpler language to learn than other traditional languages.

You've done a great job here in explaining the key elements of Java! Can you provide an example of a time you used Java to accomplish something or complete a project?
