Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Gigster.
Front End Engineer
The process is super straightforward: first, there's an Aptitude Assessment (basically an IQ test), then a Technical Assessment (coding). That's it, you're either hired or rejected. No human interaction at all. I aced the first assessment, got congratulated, and was then asked to do the second assessment. The outcome was an email saying my assessment result wasn't good enough to move forward, and they suggested reapplying in 3 months. Seriously? Knowing my solution was way better than the minimum, handling edge cases and all that, I suspect it was a very automated process with poor oversight. I'll probably not even bother applying again. The assessments themselves are poorly designed, and the instructions might say 'multiple choices questions' but the interface only allows selecting one option.
- Can you implement the Minimum Window Substring algorithm?
- How would you implement Tic-Tac-Toe using React?
- Describe a use case for React's Context API.
Senior Frontend Developer
So first there was this aptitude test, like, 30 mins to do sentences, puzzles, and some logic/math stuff, but I could only finish about half of it. Then the technical part, which had 3 sections: algorithms, building a Tic Tac Toe in React, and using the React Context API.
- Complete the analogy: An apple is to tree as ____ is to liquid.
Senior Frontend Developer
So, for the interview process, they first gave me two assessments. One was an aptitude test, basically to check my logical thinking skills. The other one was a technical assessment, which had three parts: a task about data structures, another to build an app using React, and a final one where I had to use the context API in React.
- Can you solve this aptitude test focusing on logical thinking?
- Implement a task related to data structures.
- Can you create an application using React?
