π How landed on the interview?
π Got a call from a recruiter who found my profile on Naukri, possibly through a third-party platform.
Round 1: Security and React
π Focus on web security, including knowledge about attacks and defense mechanisms.
π‘οΈ Questioned about web security fundamentals, such as common attacks like XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) and ransomware.
π‘ Discussed the security principles followed in my organization and the security considerations while coding on the frontend.
βοΈ Explored React's lifecycle methods and their significance in maintaining secure web applications.
π Asked about component design considerations, such as minimizing security vulnerabilities and ensuring data privacy.
βοΈ Requested to write a generic memoization function to test problem-solving skills.
I honestly admitted that I was familiar with the terms but lacked practical experience. However, I expressed my willingness to learn and enhance my understanding of security.
Soon after, the HR representative joined the call and informed me that if I were selected, I would receive an invitation for a managerial interview within the next two hours. At that moment, I felt burnt out and uncertain about my chances of being selected, considering my performance in the security-related questions.
Round 2: JavaScript/Framework
π€ Started with introductions and discussed my work experience.
π» Technical questions covered Promises, asynchronous behavior, and generator functions.
π Asked to write a polyfill for the reduce function (already practiced!).
ποΈ Question on object manipulation (specific details not recalled).
π¬ In-depth discussions and arguments on pure functions and currying concepts.
After completing the first round, I was given a half-hour break and asked to rejoin the same link for the next round.
Round 3: Hiring Manager/Culture Fit
πΌ Interviewed by the manager, who explained the project and asked about a feature I was proud of.
π Provided a detailed explanation and even drew a flow chart to illustrate the feature's flow.
π¬ Discussion about conflict resolution within a team and handling team dynamics.
π€ HR informed me that will let u know π
