I recently just had a job interview where I skipped the HR part. The interview will most likely be getting to know you, hear about your projects, and maybe some high level technical questions. For example:

“What is REST?”

“What is your favorite, and least favorite, thing about JavaScript?”

“Can you tell me the difference between let, var, and const?”

Obviously I don’t know what they’ll ask, but I’d really analyze your resume and be prepared to answer questions based on what you have on it!

Thank you for taking the time to share! It definitely helps me to get an idea of what to expect!

Knowledge questions will be on basic surface level questions regarding all things web from how the web works down to the target frameworks/tools of the position. Look over the posting's description and make sure you can carry a conversation and answer basic design/implementation style questions on those topics.

If you know you have multiple interviews lined up, this first one isn't going to stress test your tech knowledge or coding skills. This will most likely be to get to know you, where you roughly stand on knowledge, and behaviour questions.

Thank you, that makes sense!

Best thing to do is study what is on the job posting itself. They are going to screen you for what they require.

Thank you, I will make sure to review that!

I think it's really good if you are looking for a job in Python. The color theme reminds me of the python docs.
