First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Hopin.
Frontend Developer
The process was really quick, I had 2 interviews, one with HR and a second one with 2 developers from the engineering team. The tech interview was really nice and the interviewers were really friendly. The process was really fluid and I really appreciate that.
- Can you tell me about your overall experience in frontend development?
- What constitutes a good unit test?
Front End Developer
The interview had 4 stages. First was a 30-minute chat with the recruiter, which was fine. We talked about the job and my past experience. The recruiter was friendly and sold the company well. Second was a 60-minute pairing code test, but it wasn't really a pairing test. It was more like a daunting task where I felt watched. The interviewer gave little feedback, making it stressful. Not a great experience. Third was a 60-minute systems design test, though it wasn't a true systems design test. If you're prepping, focus on how to build a web chat plugin using an npm module, as it was more about that specific component than overall architecture. Fourth was a values test, which was competency-based and related to Hopin's values.
- Could you rewrite the ReactDOM.render() method from scratch, starting with an object instead of <App />?
- How would you approach building a web chat plugin?
- Can you show how you embody Hopin's values, like having no ego, in a competency-based test?
Senior Front End Engineer
I recently went through the interview process with Hopin, and it was a really laid-back and open experience. They were welcoming and made me feel at ease. The interviewer was chill and easy to talk to, and I felt comfortable asking anything. They were upfront about what they were looking for and what they expected from me. No surprises, and I felt like I could be myself. The interviewer was super honest about the company culture and daily work life, which helped me figure out if it was a good fit. I'd totally recommend their interview process if you want something relaxed and transparent. It was obvious they value honesty and talking things through, and I appreciated them making me feel comfy and in the loop.
- How would you deal with extra requirements for the technical task?
