I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Pinterest
Interview
They were very helpful in answering your questions and explaining the job throughly. After a first ten minute call, we scheduled a technical assessment that we had to complete within 2 weeks. If that stage was passed, then you would go to the next round of interviews.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Pinterest in Jul 2016
Interview
I have only been through the initial phone screen technical interview, so I will update once the full interview process is completed.
Had about a one hour technical interview talked about my personal experience with a particular front end JavaScript.
I believe the next step would be face to face interviews at their headquarters.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The coding exercise consisted of creating a JavaScript class called Model that would expose the following methods: get, set, has, on, trigger. The class signature would be something like the following: const Woof = new Model({id:133, type: 'dog', name:'Spot' });
The has method would take a property name and check if the model has that particular property, return true or false.
The get method would take a property name and return it's value if it exists. Return null if not.
The set method would take a property name and a value and set that property's value if the property exists.
The on method would allow for the addition of an event to the class and a callback function.
The trigger method would allow the "triggering" of a particular event and pass any number of parameters to the callback function.
You can use ES5 or ES6 syntax.
