After an initial call with the recruiter to learn more about the role and share my relevant experience, I was sent a 90-minute React question with one week to respond to.

To create a "Rating" component in React - one of those 5 stars inputs that you can select your rating from. The images for filled / outlined stars were provided, and so was a function to determine if the mouse was considered halfway across the star or not.

The implementations needed were:

• Get the component working, 0-5 stars, with an optional "step" component allowing half stars
• Set up a hover state that shows the component as if you had clicked it
• Additional questions around making the component more accessible with keyboard controls: 1,2,3,4,5 and the left and right arrow keys
