      Front-end Software Engineer Interview

      16 Oct 2013
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Mozilla

      Interview

      Applied online, recruiter was nice. Was given a 40 min phone screening, during which I coded answers to questions via collabedit, which, of course is tormenting. Out of about 50 interviews I've been on, both over and well under my paygrade, this was by far the most negative experience. Interviewer acted very annoyed that he had to interview me. Would literally laugh AT me if I coded a syntax error due to trying to crank out an answer quickly. Questions asked were the typical complex JS questions, with me writing examples explaining each - scope, context (this, call, apply, bind), closures, prototypal inheritance. No questions concerning engineering mindset, experience or the like.

      Question 1

      Had me write my own function.bind polyfill.

      Front-End Developer Interview

      6 Oct 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Toronto, ON
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Mozilla (Toronto, ON) in Sept 2016

      Interview

      I applied for the front-end developer role on Mozilla careers site and the next day I got an email with a link to a HackerRank Code challenge with a promise that once I pass the challenge a phone interview will be scheduled. The Challenge required programming languages more than those listed on the job description which was quite a surprise. Once the test was finished, the result was mailed in few days time.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The HackerRank Code challenge had 5 multiple choice questions(not very difficult) and 2 code questions(little difficult). I don't remember the questions though.
