Interview Process

Our interview process is meant to have quick turnaround and precision, especially if you have some past code to share after the first call. We typically round up the process within a week or two.

1. Phone Screen

We will cover your overall experience in React Native, past projects and culture-fit

2. Review your past code or a small take-home project

If you have past code that represents your current capabilities, send them over and we can take a look. You are free to choose any project but preferably should be within the React/React Native/Android/iOS frameworks.

Alternatively, we could do a take-home project that could take 1-2 hours.

3. Onsite

a) Code Review and Mini Tasks

You will review code snippets written by us during a video call and fix the issues you see. Additionally, we would have one or two mini coding challenges for you such as implementing a function or a small part of the business logic. All of the codes will be in the React/React Native framework.

b) System Design

We will give you a problem prompt and you will lead the discussion to come up with the overall system design such as the system requirements, endpoints design, UI architecture and key technical solutions.

c) Culture

This will be a behavioral interview to assess your fit for cross-functional collaboration. It's typically led by a non-technical member of the team.
