I have a Sr. frontend engineer (JavaScript) interview with Square and I am very concerned. I heard interviewers ask to make some sort of game and leetcode style questions. Also I saw on some thread that Square allows an option to do take home code assignment instead of the regular pair programming. Would be really helpful if anyone with frontend interview experience could give some advice. Thank you. #engineering #software #swe #interview #square #frontend
For the screen? There’s a normal pair programming which is not front end specific and a frontend specific screen. The frontend specific screen should be doable without any interview prep whatsoever if you work with frontend JS day-to-day; if you can’t pass it without prep, you’re definitely going to get fired from your job here in under a year. The pair programming, like stated on our blog, is just that. You shouldn’t be getting any leetcode-hard style questions. If you do, let your recruiter know so that they can pass on the feedback to the eng teams.
