Here is a bunch of questions to go through. I was recently asked some of them and made a note of them for future reference. A lot of these are open-ended type questions and not specifically techy questions. I think these can give a very good insight into how a person thinks and can fish out what they actually have experience with when they give examples. 1. Give me an example of when you have had to release code into production that you didn’t want to. give any explanations/descriptions needed. 2. How do you keep up to date with the latest tech? 3. Give me an example of how you have improved some code and why. 4. Are you a front-end or back-end guy? 5. Give me examples of how you have stress tested a website or piece of software. 6. Have you got any API experience? Give an example. a. Explain how you would secure an API. 7. Have you got any experience with Mobile app development? 8. What are your biggest strengths? 9. What are areas you could improve on? 10. Give me an example of when you have disagreed with a decision. How did you handle it? What was the outcome? 11. Tell me about your experience using a database? 12. Tell me about your perfect day. What would you be doing. There were a lot of specific questions after this but I think these are good to get you started. In terms of actually answering your question "What is missing and what can be done better?", I think the best thing to do could be to simply produce something using technologies implemented by the company. If someone I was interviewing asked me ahead of time what techs we use so they can perhaps write some code to show me then I would happily give them that list and an example of a public-facing solution (e.g. a company website) for them to see. A lot of places nowadays (in the UK at least) will just have phone interviews and a face to face interview to ask techy and personal questions. Then if you get the job you would be on a probation period for a few months to make sure you can actually do the job. I think answering the questions above can help to impress and get you through the door. Hope this all helps!
