Mine last year was just to write a code to iterate a tree. Just 3 lines of code. I didnt know. A japa job that I had suffered to reach the final stage. You would have figured it out if you just started writing something sha. At least a for loop or a filter function or something haha. That must have indeed been painful. I'm about to start learning DSA for the sake of future jobs. Hopefully I'm consistent enough 1 Like 1 Share |

TheManOfTheYear:
My interview was great. I'd rate it 8/10.
I was already in the meeting room online about 5 minutes to the start of time. The first question was the usual "tell us about yourself and your background".
I gave a brief narration about my work experience so far, (didn't let them know they were internships), also talked about some of my technical writing experience.
At this stage, I quickly chipped in on some of the open source works I've done. The CTO guy immediately developed keen interest when I mentioned open source. I've actually been doing some beginner friendly open source contributions on GitHub. Both in code and in technical writing. The guy seemed to love that fact. I made sure I use that moment to shine.
He asked me to show some of my open source contributions on GitHub, which I did.
Now, after about 30 minutes of chit chats, it was time for some technical rounds. Unexpectedly, it was my projects on GitHub they decided to use to fire me questions.
They went through my different code on GitHub and ask me questions. For example, the guy would enter a file and see a block of code somewhere, he would ask me to explain what the code was doing. Why I used that approach instead of another approach (which he would mention).
Omo me wey don forget why I write some code sef However, I would do my best to explain to the best of my memory and knowledge.
I made sure the interview was as communicative as possible. I expressed myself a lot.
So after one hour, they finally relaxed me. Now it was time for me to ask them questions. So I decided to ask about their product. What their product really do and what the aim was in the near future.
So yeah, interview process differs, the main thing is to give them a reason to employ you.
But as for DSA, well, that's different lol. Not all companies use DSA, that must have been a very high paying job role.
They gave me a specific time they'd get back to me, so fingers crossed. I wish you good luck chief and may their response favour you IJN. 5 Likes |

You cant use for loops for trees. Automatic failure lol. That would be BFS or DFS, right? |
Re: My Job Hunting Experiences As A Junior Developer So Far by tensazangetsu20(m): 11:39pm On May 13, 2022 |
Karleb:
That would be BFS or DFS, right? Yeah DFS is better since its recursive in nature. BFS uses queues and the code is long and one can easily make mistakes when coding. |

Babtunz:
Hello, I think we're in the same boat. Written a few articles already and I'm hoping I could find someone as a partner to speed up and improve my writing skills.
Do you mind having me as a partner? We could start a group for technical writers to share professional tips and helpful materials. The group will be strictly by invitation and we'll need some mechanism to verify if truly a prospective member is a valid author.
I await your reply, chief. That's sounds great. My contact info is in my signature. |
