Ishan's response is honest and clarifies his experience with Python, which is limited to his coursework. He correctly redirects the focus to his proficiency in C++ and JavaScript, which is relevant to the job role. However, Ishan could have taken this opportunity to discuss any personal projects or academic assignments where he applied Python, even if it wasn't part of his internships. This would demonstrate his ability to use Python in practical scenarios and his understanding of data structures in a language that is part of the job description.
