Frontend Engineer
The interview process was super chill and friendly. The technical interview involved solving an algorithmic problem using JavaScript. My prep mainly consisted of practicing on platforms like Codewars.
- Could you explain what hoisting is?
Frontend Engineer
I was invited for a 30min technical interview with the tech lead and an engineer, they had some classic javascript & web accessibility questions (if you google "top 10 js questions" you got it). I was training for a presentation meeting, but I was a surprised that they said the meeting would be a technical interview, since the HR were not explicit about it, and it was my first contact with the company. What frustrated me most about the process was that I had asked HR when the next stage of the process would happen and what it would be like (a technical or presentation interview), and I didn't get an answer. It definitely compromised my process.
- What are the new features in ES6 compared to previous Ecmascript versions?
- Can you explain how Promises work internally?
- What measures can be taken to improve web accessibility?
Frontend Engineer
I applied in March and after about two weeks, I had a technical interview. It went okay, I answered the questions and completed the task. I was told it was satisfactory and that I would hear about the next steps soon. However, after two weeks with no communication, I reached out to inquire about the application status. Shortly after my email, I was informed that they decided not to move forward with my application.
- Given an array with two strings of numbers separated by commas, how do you return the numbers that appear in both strings?
