interview

Before Attending Interview

Prepare yourselves for the situation 15-20 min ahead.

Keep the meeting setup, assure editor-compile cycle works, structure and organize everything so you don't have to decide later. e.g: editor, browser, etc.

During Interview

Read The Requirements

It's easier to go ahead and write the code based on first impression of problem. Don't. Just Read through what is required. What kind of data is coming in as input. Think of how you want the data to be before you go ahead and implement the solution.

Have building blocks ready

For e.g: if interviewing for react role, keep the redux-react boilerplate ready.
