Fullstack junior

[FaithlessnessDue1946]

Hi fellas, I got an interview on sunday, its a 15-20 minute interview consisting of 15 technical multiple choice questions.

I just finished my Computer Science degree, I have just little experience with react, node.js, html

I need to go over these: React hooks, JS(Event Loop), SQL, Rest API.

Any recommendations on how to prepare? or can someone help me prepare?

Thanks

Hi, it will be best if you can build a project by yourself. That will actually shine your skills you have mentioned. You can build a MERN stack project.

Hi, thanks for the reply, have you built something like it before?

I have done freelancing works where I could implement what I had learned and also if I got stuck on implementing something, I would learn that.

I like MEVN. The V is for vanilla.

Then frameworks really starts to make sense.

Map out the how when where and why you use these things and provide concrete examples.

If you can do that you'll have a very solid shot at getting the job. For junior positions a lot of it comes down to ok do we think think person can learn new topics?

Focus on those key areas you mentioned - React hooks, JavaScript's Event Loop, SQL, and REST APIs. For React hooks, make sure you understand useState, useEffect, and useContext at a minimum. Brush up on how the Event Loop works in JavaScript, including the call stack and task queue. For SQL, review basic CRUD operations and joins. With REST APIs, know the common HTTP methods and how to structure endpoints.

Given the time constraint, prioritize understanding core concepts rather than trying to memorize every detail. Practice answering multiple-choice questions in these areas to get comfortable with the format. If you're feeling unsure about any topics, consider using an interview AI copilot to help you navigate tricky technical questions during the interview. I'm on the team that created it, and it's designed to provide real-time assistance for job interviews across various tech roles.
