      Fullstack Engineer Interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Folk App (Paris) in Apr 2023

      Interview

      I recently went through an interview process that left me feeling disappointed. The format of the interview was supposed to involve a 30-minute demo of their app, followed by questions, and then it would be my turn to showcase a product or project I worked on. However, the company's demo went on for 40 minutes, leaving me with no time to ask questions as I was supposed to. Furthermore, the app didn't fully work, and they didn't discuss any technical aspects of the product. When it was my turn, I had only 20 minutes to demo and answer questions, which put me under pressure to rush through my presentation. Unfortunately, the interviewers only asked two simple, non-technical questions, which left me feeling unchallenged and underutilized. To add insult to injury, I was subsequently rejected for the position with feedback that they were expecting more technical expertise from me. I was confused by this feedback, given that they had emphasized focusing on the product and architecture during the interview. Despite not getting the job, I felt like I had provided the company with a lot of free consultancy by giving them guidance and asking key questions about their product. Overall, the interview process was disappointing, and I hope that the next company I interview with will be more effective and provide a better experience.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      30min where you present a challenging project you worked on to us. It has to be something you have worked on professionally and resonates with folk in some way or on some use cases. We don't recommend presenting a personal project as it usually does not face the same issues and is of a smaller scale. Things to focus on: what Was the project and what was the challenge? how was it done? what were the unknowns? what are the take aways?
