Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

HR call - 30m

Online home assignment (using your own IDE) - 3h Algorithms - 1h System design - 1h JavaScript - 1h Behavioral interview - ~1h

Rejection (in my case)

HR call with very constructive and detailed feedback - 15min.

Polite people. Interesting and well-prepared home assignment! Interesting interviews, not very hard, but covered many topics. The best feedback I've ever seen!

All questions have been listed here on Glassdoor. I didn't believe that everything could be the same, so my mistake was not to learn it, but to try to prepare in the usual way. Just do this, and 80% of those interviews will be covered!

Questions

Behavioral interview questions were slightly changed, but the topics remained the same. For example: "Tell me about a time when you had a different opinion about a technical approach to solving a problem than your colleague."

For the design system, I had a task to design a particular module for an "existing" system. There was a rough design, and my task was to create a document (e.g., for another team) with a technical description. This included features, future plans, APIs, types (TypeScript), and considering possible problems and ways to address them, all from a frontend perspective. Database, latency, and other backend concerns were excluded.

Frontend and algorithms sections are exactly the same as described previously.

Frontend: addCommas function and a logger with a production mode.

Algorithms: Merge two arrays with conditions. (This might have been something else, but I failed this one. The problem was very easy, like an easy LeetCode problem, so be careful with edge cases.)
