      Front End Javascript Engineer Interview

      8 Nov 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PayPal

      Interview

      An engineering manager approached to me via LinkedIn and after our initial chat I got in touch with their recruiter who set up a phone interview with an engineer in the team. The Phone Screen was supposed to be 30 min discussion about my projects, about some JavaScript fundamentals and then rest 30 min about JS coding test. When I went on to describe about my recent project, there were some follow up questions but she seemed to be more interested in cutting me midway and less interested in my answers - in most cases she said this much explanation is enough - I thought may be she was worried about the time limit. The coding question was kinda easy, and after a minor hiccup I figured out the solution. I had also answered her theoretical questions comfortably. Two days later I got rejection - still wondering why. I sent a follow up question to the recruiter to understand my weaknesses so I do better next time? I am still waiting....
