Dissecting the Front-End Interview
- decafninja 6y agoThis was helpful. I've been frustrated with failing multiple frontend interviews recently. Generalist SWE & backend interviews have the benefit of question banks like leetcode to practice, as well as tons of general information resources. Frontend does not have anything like leetcode, and general information is scant too. I'll admit the problems I've been seeing in frontend interviews are arguably more practical than leetcode puzzles. At the same time, they also cover scenarios and edge cases not likely to have been encountered during day to day work or even most study. Leetcode at least lets you encounter and grind for these kind of "tricks and patterns".
- akdas 6y agoThis is a great point I hadn't considered. While I'm a generalist, when it comes to big company interviews, I'm definitely more on the backend side. What kinds of uncommon scenarios and edge cases have you encountered in your experience? Are these questions trivia about specific frameworks and languages, or something else?
