The recruiter scheduled a technical round. It started with basic NodeJS-related questions and some intermediate backend engineering questions. Questions were not clear, very vague, and upon asking for clarity in terms of questions, they were not sure what they wanted. It seems like they have a sheet of questions with expected answers. I read about a post stating exactitude, which seems to be true.

Colloquio
The initial HR screening was basic and the conversation went well with the recruiter.
However, one question felt unnecessary and unprofessional to me. Even though the role was remote and I’m already based in Bangalore, he asked whether I currently live with my family or not. It felt unrelated to the role and made me uncomfortable, as it seemed like an indirect way of asking about personal or marital status. The recruiter ghosted after the initial discussion.

Colloquio
The recruiter had scheduled a first round of technical interview. The HR said first round would be a coding round to analyse the DSA but rather they went with basic stuff about NodeJs and went deep into event loop. Some questions were very vague and if you ask for any hint, they will everything is there in the question and you just want to figure it out. I felt like they have a set of questions and answers to those and if you say different approach to the question, they'll ask you again and again till they get that answer. They asked only about the backend and some questions related to Git.
At the end of the interview, I asked for the hint that I couldn't solve his expectations on image processing for task scheduler code I wrote. He said you are in correct direction and just implement that which I already explained with examples and everything. Still he didnt say anything and completed the call.
Domande di colloquio [4]
Domanda 1
- Suppose your application has to deal with Sharing, uploading and editing a post and it used two different databases like Postgres and Mongo. How do you make a strong consistency between those two databases and make an every api with 99% success rate?
- Create a Task scheduler with Javascript / Typescript. Your task scheduler shouldn't wait for any other task to complete and you dont know how many number of tasks are coming. Your scheduler should implement complex tasks like image processing also.
