Can you write a quick list of missing concepts ?
- wildrhythms 6y agoI interview for front-end at a big company (actually a different title, but effectively front-end engineers) and we explicitly do not ask trivia questions, which is what this guide focuses on. I might ask warm-up questions like "a customer says they click a button on the page and nothing happens, how do you investigate?" and that's it. The entire rest of the interview (1hr) is spent on a coding problem where we both walk through and discuss solutions, and I let them code and we talk about their code. I truly believe that experienced engineers can learn 1000x more about someone's skillset in the first 5 minutes of them coding than any amount of trivia questions.
