Front End Developer Interview Experience

Process

I applied online for the front-end developer position and heard back the next day from a recruiter.

We chatted over the phone, and she was very interested in my skills. She then gave me a coding challenge to complete.

I was given an image and asked to recreate it in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with the functionality specified in an accompanying document. I finished it the same day it was assigned and submitted the code.

Two days later, the developers had reviewed my solution and asked to set up a Skype interview.

It was an hour-long interview where the interviewer asked about my experiences and we coded together online. They presented two JavaScript coding puzzles (which weren't an exact representation of front-end development skills).

I got both puzzles working, but the next day they said they would not be moving forward with my application.

Questions

Given an array where each entry can be another array, and so forth, flatten the array.

Example: [4, [3, 6, [9, 1, 9, [5, 1]]], 8] -> [4, 3, 6, 9, 1, 9, 5, 1, 8]

Given a value N, return the corresponding string according to this pattern: 1 11 21 1211 111221 312211
