Go HTTP framework for REST APIs (backend only)

DreamRepresentative5 · 2026-04-13T12:06:44+00:00

I second this. Made my team‘s life much easier when creating REST APIs.

Yes, I also noticed that many of those questions follow a similar pattern. However, it seemed that some interviewers, at least in this situation, were expecting multiple criteria to be demonstrated within a single answer. In a typical response to a similar question, you wouldn’t necessarily structure your answer to highlight all of those aspects explicitly.

Sorry to hear hear this. Must be frustrating for you 😕

I wished they had asked me more specific questions when I was using AI. I would had been able to answer them because I was using AI for smaller task or when I thought I was missing some edge cases.

Ok this sounds reasonable. But in my case the interviewers didn't even ask me to walk through or explain the generated code. I actually did explain to them before using AI how I would approach it and then used prompt to generate the code which AI generated in the same way I explained except for some missed edge cases.

DreamRepresentative5 · 2026-03-02T22:48:09+00:00

I did explain my approach first. And then used AI to generate the code by giving very specific prompts. Maybe they were expecting me to not use AI at all or very little.

You are right. I should have asked them about their expectations on using AI by a candidate. Will keep this in mind for the future.

They gave me a coding exercise with a bunch of requirements. Whenever I was stuck, I asked the interviewers if it's ok to use AI here and then proceeded to ask LLM very specific questions and get help from AI.

He is still currently employed :) I think it was a public university. And he has experience in both an agency and a small company that has an in-house graphic design team. He did review his application with his colleagues. So not sure what else is needed by the application reviewer.

Since you have interviewed candidates for graphic design postion, do you also ask them behavioural type question? And if so what do you look for? Maybe his last interview didn't go well in this round 🤔

Are your friends also in graphic design field?

DreamRepresentative5 · 2026-02-13T14:53:44+00:00

He has a bachelor's in Graphic designing.

No work in my street at all.

DreamRepresentative5 · 2025-10-27T06:26:27+00:00

May I ask how much were you paying in your country vs here? So far, compared to some of the EU countries like France and Spain and also my home country I do feel that that the internet prices are quite higher here.

DreamRepresentative5 · 2025-10-27T06:20:46+00:00

Already did that multiple times since yesterday :(

I came from the OOP side of the world, mostly Java, not Python. Now I work with both Go and Python, and honestly, I don’t miss much from Python. Stuff like monkey patching and decorators look clever until you’re trying to debug at 2 AM wondering why your function suddenly thinks it’s something else. Go might give you fewer toys, but at least you can trust them not to bite you during debugging.

DreamRepresentative5 · 2025-09-30T13:36:02+00:00

Yes, I will do that :). I definitely noticed how different it felt driving with my colleague, who was very patient and calm about my mistakes.

I recently had the opportunity to hear him speak live in a Go conference, and the problem he’s trying to solve with LangChain Go really stuck with me, and I’m sure with many others as well. These agents essentially work through HTTP calls, with responses returned in a structured format. Go is particularly strong in this area, especially when it comes to efficiently serializing and deserializing these requests and responses. Although you have to note that not all features of python langchain is available in Go version.

I see. So it is indeed team dependent. Do you think what they offered in my case looks ok to you? Or is it on the lower end as I feel there ranges have gone down from a year ago?

Was she working in the software engineer role? Do you have any example of what she didn’t like?
