Staff Frontend Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York

Process

  • Recruiter call
  • Tech screen
  • Architecture interview
  • Hiring manager interview
  • Met with someone from the team
  • Values interview (had it twice; the second interviewer didn't even know I had already done this interview :////)
  • Generic email after getting all the way through with no feedback, saying "we're going with another candidate," yet the job posting is still up...

For the most part, people were nice. The main issue is that this whole process took 4 weeks and nearly 6+ hours. The values interview was frustrating, as they kept bringing up the same topic repeatedly: how recently I had changed jobs. This is clearly something a recruiter should have doubted, not the last interviewer. The last values interviewer was also not aware that I had already had the same interview just a few days prior. At the end, receiving a generic email with no feedback felt very disrespectful, given the significant time commitment for someone who already has a job. Plus, the job is still advertised on job boards, suggesting they are probably not actively looking to hire anyone, like many other tech companies.

Questions

You're given a function that takes an array and an async callback that can map over a value in the array. You are asked to write an algorithm that allows for at most two operations to be called at once and to return the values in the order they were entered.

I was asked to design the architecture for an activity feed on the Patreon site.
