      Front-end Software Engineer Interview

      26 Mar 2019
      Anonymous employee
      Austin, TX
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CognitiveScale (Austin, TX) in Mar 2019

      Interview

      Phone screen with the Director of Engineering, followed by an on-site visit that consisted of a short conversation with the Director of Engineering, 2 rounds of meeting with pairs of software engineers on the team, 1 round of meeting with QE, then a wrap-up conversation with the Director of Engineering. The 1st round with software engineers was focused on having a technical discussion regarding JS and web development and the 2nd round was focused on backend and infrastructure experience + a technical whiteboard problem. The meeting with QE was aimed at determining my level of experience interacting with quality engineering / test and product management teams. The interview process emphasized interest in the company and the work that they do more so than technical expertise (although there was still a decent bit of technical evaluation). I came away with a positive experience and was able to get all of my questions about the company answered in the many discussions I had with the Director of Engineering and recruiters throughout the process.

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      What is the difference between React, Angular, and Vue, and why would you choose one library / framework over the others?
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Basic questions about async / await. How do you await the completion of an array of function calls returning Promises?
      Answer question

      Question 3

      Why would someone want to use a library like isomorphic-fetch vs the "built-in" fetch?
