As a developer with 11 years of experience, I went through more of those interviews than I can count. Now, I'm in the position where I hire people - and I completely abandoned the industry standard quiz routine. Based on my own personal experience, my belief is that a good software developer will have a certain mindset and good problem solving skills. With enough experience, I really don't care if they used React before or not. Is it a plus? Sure. Besides, we're not robots. We can't possibly remember everything. That's what documentation is for.

The good thing is your underlying knowledge will make learning these things easier than it is for most.

I first watched this video in early 2019 after I’d just had an interview for an entry-level web developer job, and there was so much in this video I didn’t understand. It really got me down. Through sheer luck (and maybe a lack of other applicants) I landed the job. A year and a half later and I’ve watched this video again, and I could’ve answered every single question. I’ve been feeling really down recently because I think I’m really bad at my job and I’m not learning anything, but this video helped me get some perspective.

To be fair, she called it "React life cycle" which is what confused you. The proper term would have been "component life cycle".

I’ve been a web dev for years and been on my fair share of these types of interviews. One suggestion I would make to anyone preparing, is learn to tell stories. I don’t mean your life story, but take the question you are asked and tie it into an experience you have had on a project if possible. Or anything tech you know where you can tie the question into something you know. You display your level of experience and knowledge this way. Don’t just say yes or no to questions, or simply provide the answer. Also, some recruiters will ask candidates what questions were asked and can give you a heads up. This is a huge advantage if you can get this information, since you can prep for topic areas before the interview. It’s almost like cheating 😎 And don’t worry about bombing an interview. All it takes is one that gets you a new job. But cool video. This is definitely what an interview is like.

hey guys, just had a junior react + node interview, here are some questions: How you handle errors in React? How you keep all NPM packages up to date? How you ensure there're no vulnerabilities within dependencies? How you keep code within Node organized? Walk me through your workflow process when you start a new React project? Which are some of your favorite Node libraries? When is it appropriate to use context in React? State vs props? What is an agile shop? ... hope this helps. good luck to all!

1. You can and should log them using a logger tool sich as LogRocket or sentry. If you have errors, using a error catch on React router you can send the user to an error page. There you have oppoertunity to notify the user that there was an issue. 2. In your github or bitbucket you can use tools like dependabot to track out of date packages. Personally I have most of my packages in Nexus in order to avoid breaking features in updated packages. 3. This is very opinionated. There are different ways sich as MVC or Route Based organization. Really depends on what the team prefers 4. If I have to start something from scratch I either user create react app or nextjs boilerplate. I usually set up my linting and prettier first and then define all my pages in either nextjs or react router. Mostly I have templates already set up trough github templates that I often clone. 5. I live momentjs and React Apollo. They are easy to use, well maintained and has a pretty tiny size for its features 6. Probably when you realize that redux is not the greatest tool in the world for what it does. 7. Yes. 8. I think this is the website of scrum where you can certify yourself as a scrummaster without any real life experience for 60 dollars

When interviewing with HR personnel in first round then this Albert Einstein quote applies: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough." Assume that they know little or nothing because they don't. You will impress the interviewer if you are able to explain technical stuff in a really simple and straight forward way. When you interview with a real developer then you can "talk shop" and get really specific with things. It's important you understand their understanding of how the sausage is made early in the interview. Really this is example of just a simple screening interview. I would have gotten some more information about the coding challenge so you can better understand what its going to involve and what they will be looking for you exhibit. You did a great job. Well done. It is clear that you moved to the next round.

Thanks for sharing Joshua, felt nervous for you. Was so good to see that they are not really much different to a standard interview, besides checking knowledge. Phone interviews are mostly to see if you're likeable and know how to communicate.

This was totally awesome. glad to know that not everyone sounds like a rockstar and nails every answer on their interview! Thanks for uploading this!

Dude this video is amazing. Now that I am getting closer to interviews, this helps a ton :). Appreciate it and subscribed.

What a instructive video! Thank you! And it is clear how difficult it is for the interviewer to cope up with so many technologies! I understand their side as well!

That was really cool Josh, great idea for a vid!

wow man, wonderful video, I always wanted to see what a real interview for a remote job is like, very nice!!!!!

I love this video, such a great idea. Thank you for creating this! I have a few ideas that may help others when speaking on the phone. Please, answer your phone with your own name when you expect a call from a professional contact. It avoids the need for the caller to confirm they have reached the correct person and avoids some initial awkwardness. Don't be afraid to open with a small story too, nothing too long but enough to deliver some personal tone outside of, "Mondays huh?" or "It sure is hot out lol". Doing so quickly establishes a positive tone and allows you to showcase some of your personality. Finally, people hire others they feel they can get along with! Your personality and work ethic are your most important assets!

Thank you so much for posting this, I thought that you handled the stress very well! Keep up the great vids

You did well man...I once had an interview for a Technical PM position and I got 100 questions back to back. 50 one session and 50 the next and there were questions that I did not know but like my CIO told me after I onboarded, it's not about your answers so much but more about the confidence in how you answer them.

Hey there! Enjoyed the video! I don't feel alone in these crazy interviews anymore. You really showed me that there are others who are in the struggle as well. Thanks man:)

This was really good, wish i'd seen this before i got an interview for a tech job. I'd only worked retail before that and the interviews were so different. Might just be that it was a remote job too.

good video - i usually write up my end of interview questions just to pull from them quickly at the end. tends to help me a lot.

Excellent video, thanks for posting. This is very helpful and has shown me that the 1st interview for a development job is really no different from every other field I have been in. One thing that may help viewers with the interview process: most likely, the first person you talk to (phone screen) will be a recruiter that supports the hiring manager's department - as he points out in the end. Ask a few questions about the person's role at the company in the first minute of the conversation to confirm this. The hiring manager gave the recruiter a list of questions to ask and the job here is to give the recruiter enough checks in the boxes to bring you on-site or on a call with the hiring manager. Notice in the video how every time he asks the recruiter if she wants more detail she quickly answers no.

awesome vid. Cool to look back on the come up here.

Thank you for the interview showcase!

6:53 you da MVP man this is awesome. Subscribed. I found you from Aaron in Beta.

The lifecycle question was one that everyone here in the comments probably understood what the interviewer was asking and we all cringed for you a bit. But i understand the nerves you get during interviews and sometimes you are so nervous to do good that your brain takes weird tangents when you hear certain words. I bet as soon as you watched it over again you probably knew exactly what she wanted the moment you heard it without the nerves of the interview. For those that are reading this, I also would say that this was a rougher type of interview to have. The person leading the interview (the girl on the phone) didn't do a super good job conducting the interview in my opinion. It was very sterile and you could almost hear her checking off boxes through the phone. I hate interviews like this. A good interviewer will actually create a conversation and find ways to get information of skill and knowledge much more naturally. In fact, interviews like this one cause the person getting interviewed to be much more nervous and trip up more often. As an employer you can miss out on really good talent through a poor interview process like this. Especially in software development because many of the best developers out there are introverted and those types of personalities struggle with this kind of interview. But thanks for making the video. I think the questions are good study questions for developers to think about before an interview. But i think the company that you interviewed with needs to look at training their staff to conduct better interviews.

But I have always been the type to develop relationships and dont go entirely on just plain questions and chat with developers and more of a relaxed convo. Then again we also have quotad to meet so and bosses in the room that are hearing are calls. For the most part I still get to know the person then ask some tech questions. She is horrible.

i really love this video. at first it seem to be a click bait but this was an actual genuine interview. you should do more of those

Props for putting yourself in an interview, under intense pressure, on display for millions people wow

My favorite part of this has to be the massive bomb 7 minutes in, but it's not because I enjoy seeing anyone make mistakes. It's just nice to see a reminder that even the most seemingly confident people can mess up in interviews. My first phone interview for a software engineering company was around 5 years ago and I bombed like this (actually, much worse). The difference is I never actually recovered. So it is nice to see that there is still hope.

Thank you so much for sharing this! I will have a internship interview tomorrow, so helpful :)

Thank you for making this video, it helped me a lot. You are so brave! Respect!

You made me feel alot better about my interviews. Thanks man.

everything looks inspiring to me, I'm glade I've invested 20 minutes watching your interview, love your Finland flag and I hope you keep pushing yourself out of your comfort zone. god bless u

Please make more this kind of videos... Very helpful.. thanks..

Thank you very much for making this video. You really are wonderful, cool and casual, and handled the interview bravely. I would like you to make videos on front end too

I always struggle how long should a self-introduction be, in many interviews ppl who care about what you have not what you have been would like you to be more concise on your skills and what projects you have done, I made mistakes before to talk about my experiences in chronological order, and the interviewer got very inpatient

As now everyone shows perfect life in social networks, I really like to watch people showing as humans. Keep the good work!

Well thank you. That was really interesting and informative.

Thanks for sharing and doing this. You got another subscriber.

14 year software engineer (big data engineering and now ML). I've interviewed approx 80 people in my career - I always pick their resume/CV and quiz them in-depth on their projects and knowledge of what is on their resume/CV. Yes they will have to whiteboard and yes will critique what they whiteboard. And no, I don't ask how to reverse a binary tree. That tells me nothing - that can be googled and implemented easily. Example, tell me how you used Kafka (what was the topology? how many topics), How did you index in ElasticSearch, what loads you had on your DBs, what problems were encountered and how you solved those problems. Why didn't you use this tech over this other tech? Could you use it? Compare these two technologies on your CV, what are the main differences you saw interfacing with them....etc

I love you. As a upcoming graduate, I can ramble about my project in-depth all day. Algorithm & Data Structure code problems, now that scares me. I can speak about Algo's and DS's all day. Coding them I struggle with. Conceptually I understand both. I can even write pseudocode, but getting the code working is hard. Remembering the syntaxes and whatnot, is hard.

Streeeetch.

I used to screen developers like this (hold the first initial call) and can tell you that the interviewer should not be throwing in technical questions into a 'fun chat' (or whatever she said at the start). This is a red flag. If a company starts the call with 'a chat' then starts asking technical questions like this, it doesn't say much how they are treating candidates and therefore how you will be treated further down the line. I'm going through interviews as a developer myself now and have been duped into a '15 minute call to talk about the interview process', which actually turned into a 40 min first stage interview screening call! Major red flag! Any new developers out there, please watch out for things like this. Remember you deserve to be treated with respect regardless of your experience level, you are a HUMAN! Thanks, Joshua for this awesome video, I picked up some great tips, especially how to answer the testing question. Love it!

This is great - I'm subscribing and maybe even join your dc - talking about development is great

Man, great video. Thanks for the effort. Sounds a lot like my last "screening interview" four years ago.

This is very real. Except maybe that this interviewer knew a lot more about programming than most. Thanks for sharing this.

Great video. Once I totally bombed an on site interview. It was all technical. I really learned that I needed to brush up on my JS skills. It was very embarrassing and a confidence killer. It also didn't help that I was interviewed in a Subway restaurant.

Was it a phone/skype interview or and one on one? If it was the latter, it shouldn't have gone that bad because for me restaurants are the perfect place.

Thanks a lot buddy for sharing your live experience :-) but I enjoyed the BOMB stuff .. I know sometimes we explain something else where as the question is of some other point.

awesome video, much respect to you for including even the cringey moments. Much learned and thank you
