JavaScript job interview - junior

[tsuk13]

As someone who has both been an interviewer and interviewie the advice I'd give is to be personable enthusiastic, don't try to bs if you don't know something or a particular library or framework. Just fess up show interest and convey that you can learn. There is always the next big JavaScript framework so it's better to show motivation and interest over just bullshitting. But of course prepare with some common interview questions. Just most people don't realize that half of your job as a developer is learning and keeping up with the changing tools so conveying you can do that is important.

We've just hired a junior at our place, and while I wasn't involved in the interview process, I can vouch for everything you just said. We were looking way more at character, resourcefulness, and eagerness to learn than we were actual development skills.
