Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Mode Analytics.
Front-End Engineer
The first interview was a "coffee interview," which was basically a phone call. It was more like a typical interview, and they had a list of questions to ensure fairness. I didn't have a single point of contact; a different recruiter emailed me at each stage, which left a bad first impression before I even started.
- Could you share an example of a library you found particularly well-written?
- What unique capabilities do different frameworks offer that make them stand out from one another?
Front End Engineer
So I had two phone interviews, one was more behavioral and the other was with a senior engineer/manager. Both were about 45-60 mins. Then I had a 4-hour on-site. The on-site started with an hour with the engineering manager, which was pretty much all behavioral. The rest of the time was split into two technical interview segments with different people.
- When comparing two front-end frameworks or libraries, how would you differentiate them and what factors influence your choice?
- Could you walk me through what happens, step-by-step, when someone enters a URL into their browser?
- For a given API example, what format of data (like JSON or XML) would you anticipate receiving?
Front-End Engineer
I had a call with a recruiter first. Then I spoke with the director of engineering over the phone. After that, I came in for a 3-hour on-site interview. The role was still being defined at the time, so my interview timeline might have been longer than usual. A month or so later, I had some casual meetings with two people I'd be working closely with.
- Regarding Mode, what new information did you discover today that was previously unknown to you?
