Process

Interviewed for the Fortigate front-end team for Web Developer-1 position.

Step 1: Online test of 3 hours. Had 5 questions:

  • Question 1: Get JSON data (from a URL), filter it, and display it on the web page (with certain CSS rules that were given, like in a box of specific dimensions, border, flex, etc.).
  • Question 2: Algorithm question (any language).
  • Question 3: Write a function in JavaScript (it was just to filter a JSON object with specific requirements).
  • Question 4: Network diagram. Identify IP and ports of a request (study NAT).
  • Question 5: (in C language), study pointers for the question.

Step 2: In-person interview: It was a 2-hour interview. Went over the resume, a coding question (in JavaScript), a code that was given and determine the output. Asked questions related to the request made by a browser to a website, GET and POST differences, and some Linux commands.

Questions

Write a function to display serial numbers in a data structure (the data structure was an object and had a list of objects inside, and those objects had their lists too). Needed to do BFS.

Write a setTimeout function and return a promise.

Capitalize the string without using any library (C-language).
