The process took 1 week. I interviewed at smallcase in Oct 2023
Interview
My interview for the frontend intern position consisted of three rounds. In the first round, the focus was primarily on my resume and my past internship experiences. I was asked questions about React hooks behavior and its internal workings. The second round involved a machine coding challenge, where I had to create a web component within a 40-45 minute timeframe. In the third and final round, it was a cultural fit interview. Overall, the entire interview process was very smooth, and the interviewers and HR were all quite helpful and approachable throughout.
