Great advice Ankur. I may code for around 10 years now but only reach 5 years as a professional. But I already can see that many of your points are really important.

If there is one thing that I would add than I'd say "built simple solutions". People, especially after the gained some programming experience, tend to overbuilt solutions. Or they try to impress with their coding knowledge.

But believe me that, you can spot a good programmer quite fast when you look at how simple the code is.

Simple is the best. No need of those fancy one liners as long as it's understood & working fine.
