So I asked for people’s advice on going for a senior FE role in this topic https://www.nairaland.com/7349413/got-invited-senior-frontend-developer . So I went for it and thought it would be fair to give you all feedback. So I got there, 5 minutes before the asserted time. A cozy and beautiful environment. To cut the story short, I was given a laptop and was asked to open the technical assessment test session where I was asked to consume an API from an endpoint, which was restricted by CORS. Then build a table and spread informations from the database across it. The api was paginated, so I have to make it 10 number of users per page. Add a button to navigate through the pages. Add a working search input too. Easy pizzy right? 1hr 30mins was the time given. But unfortunately, they said the UI should be styled with Ant Design which I wasn’t familiar with. So I styled it with just Vanilla CSS. And then, I was later told it’s going to be fully on-site. Omo, that one off me small. But let’s see how it goes, maybe the pay may attract me, if they fortunately get back to me.
But thanks to y’all for the advice. I feel so fulfilled to go.

Best of luck bro....

Hmmm

Such cheap exercise for senior role

Congratulations, although it seems for a senior easy I won't lie.

Congratulations.. praying to reach your . Level.. please leave an advise for me

It is honestly. Maybe there will be another, I don’t know yet.

Practice everyday like your life depends on it. And I mean it.

Where you allowed to use Google?

Nah

Please I will like to know the cause of Cors error and how did you solve it. I also want to know whether you wrote the pagination logic from scratch or you use a package for it

From JavaScript you can prevent defaults that'll handle the Cors error.

Well done boss... I bet the experience will stick around for good

Just to consume API, do pagination, search and then style.

Why some companies be asking for DSA like palindrome, Fibonacci sequence, sorting, etc with whiteboard explanation and flow chart

It’s best done from the backend sir.

It depends trust me. But most frontend interviews (especially in Nigeria) don’t usually ask leetcode questions. They ask practical questions majorly.

But as a senior FE developer, you know at least 2 js frameworks!? Did they ask you to use framework or just vanilla js?

Yeah. I know React Js and Angular. But it wasn’t stated. So I went with vanilla js.

is JS not back end? At least node. Though m interested in your methodology.

Cors error results from a lousy script from the backend (express js). FE framework just displays the error.
