The typical process

Here’s how the process of interviewing generally goes: 

  • Screening call / potentially on-site interview . Typically done by someone in HR. If done by someone technical, it’s normally quite short. 
  • Technical interview. You’ll have another round of interviews with actual developers and they’ll dig into your knowledge. 
  • For the most part, it’s a waste of everyone’s time and does not assess the right skills.
  • The final interview, meeting the rest of the team. Sometimes this interview is replaced with meeting the founder if it’s a small company. 
  • Offer.

Your screener

It’s very common to have someone non-technical do the first interview. 

It’s not appropriate to ask them stack questions because they often have no idea what you’re talking about — even in small companies. 

They already have your CV, but they’ll expect an introduction...

The Typical Job Interview Process

  1. Screening call or on-site interview: lengthy when done by HR and short when it’s someone technical, also not a good time to fire all your questions.
  2. Technical interview: where your knowledge is assessed by professionals of the field.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
