Here's the overview about design patterns. Design pattern is a solution to a commonly occuring problem in software enginerring. It's NOT a source code. It's a template for how to solve a problem that can be used in many different situations. It can be classified into 4 types. In addition to that Design Patterns are NOT specific to any technolgoy. It's specific to problems. 1. Architectural Design Patterns 2. Creational Design Patterns 3. Structural Design Patterns 4. Behavioral Design Patterns I would say don't study design patterns only to attend interviews. Try to learn design patterns when you get a chance. Since you got 7 years of experience, you next position would be Technical Lead. Those design patterns will help you when you design a new applications. Thanks, Sakthi.
