Staff Software Engineer, Front End Interview Experience - Redwood City, California
Process
The guidance received was to be prepared to code a real-world application using vanilla JS.
As soon as the interview began, the interviewer started shooting backend questions and then one JS question.
Highly unprofessional. The interviewer was complaining about how he hates taking interviews and wants to move into management roles instead. At the end of the interview, I gave some feedback, and he mentioned he was not aware he was interviewing me for a frontend role.
These people do not understand the effort a candidate puts into preparing as per the guidance and skills. A waste of time. 🤦🏻♂️
