Front End Engineer Interview Experience - Australia
Process
The interview process consists of three rounds:
-
An interview over Zoom about key JavaScript concepts. It's pretty chill and suggests directions if you get lost.
-
A pair coding exercise using the Fetch API. Once again, very helpful.
-
Three back-to-back interviews. This is where it gets tiring if you're not used to these types of coding interviews. One focuses mainly on JavaScript, one mainly on CSS, and one is random.
Additionally, there is a non-technical interview where they ask standard interview questions.
