Hi All ,
I am a Senior Front end developer with around 10+ years experience on Front end technologies . I have been with same company with for more than 6+ years. On top of that my current role is lead position where I need to handle multiple teams with minimum coding.This is making me nervous since with current mkt if there is layoff I don't want to be caught off guard with no hands on experience or preparation.
The interview scenario has also changed in last few years . I need your expert advice on switching job
- How much time should I give for LC for interviews (are interviews shifting away for LC style to more takeaway home problems or AI)
- Reading this forum it seems there is another layer of AI interview round. Can anyone please explain what exactly is this round ? Does this round give you a system to design and check your proficiency is prompt engineering, checking how deep and specific prompt would give you solution with minimum time and all edge case scenarios ?
- Specifically for front end senior position (architect) what specific preparation is needed other than above points.
The interview for the current job was bit different when I gave 6 years ago . It was not leet code style but practical type of front end interview where I was asked to code Dashboard using React and Javascript. The next design interview was aligned to front end design patterns as well as CSS patterns and front end stack. Hence I had never prepared for LC style interviews.
Now since I am checking after more than 6 years I am really nervous . I can write front end code but get nervous with LC style questions
P.N - I don't have job urgency since current role and job seems safe at least for 6 months(hence have some time to prepare), but I want to prepare for unknown times ahead and current market trends.
All inputs are welcome . TIA !
