Full Stack Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
The best on-site interview process encountered so far. The reason I say so is because they focus more on real-world experience over spending the whole day solving algorithms. See my interview experience.
Phone call with recruiter. 45-minute technical phone screen with an engineer:
- A lot of OOP questions (maybe 30 minutes).
- Then a 15-minute coding session.
On-site: 4 hours.
On-site 1st hour: System design on a whiteboard.
- Identify UI components.
- Identify the web API needed, including endpoints, sample requests and responses, and HTTP methods.
- How would you integrate these?
On-site 2nd hour: Frontend focused.
- Build the UI shown to you.
- Add event listeners to integrate the provided API.
On-site 3rd hour: Lunch with the prospective team director and PM.
On-site 4th hour: Backend focused.
- Implement the API and classes needed to support the frontend.
- Identify data models needed and their relationships and constraints.
Good luck!
