Process

After an initial call with an internal recruiter, I did 4 hours of a "virtual onsite" that we split into two 2-hour blocks on consecutive days. When it came to technical knowledge, they were really good at making the interview relevant to the job and not just "can you write an algorithm" type of question. We had a conversation about system architecture, and I wrote a JavaScript class to create an interactive web component.

Every part of the interview process felt more like a conversation with a colleague rather than an inquisition.

Questions

I was shown a mockup of a page, and I walked through how I would build it as a collection of components and how I would handle data fetching and performance concerns.
