Which track was it for, and how were the rounds? Any LC?

jovial harbor Oct 15, 2021, 5:37 PM

#

backend track, LC and algo related stuff

#

maybe a tad bit of sys design concepts

#

and OOD

#

kind of just a hodgepodge of stuff

alpine pier Which track was it for, and how were the rounds? Any LC?

what are you interviewing for?

alpine pier Oct 15, 2021, 5:46 PM

#

Frontend

jovial harbor Oct 15, 2021, 5:46 PM

#

cool!

#

the frontend project looked interesting

#

did you do time adjustment based on elapsed time

alpine pier Oct 15, 2021, 5:47 PM

#

You mean the seekbar??

jovial harbor Oct 15, 2021, 5:47 PM

#

no the actual timing itself

#

since JS setTimeout isn't exact

#

you'd need to adjust the timer for each frame based on elapsed time

#

if you want it to be 30 consistent frames

alpine pier Oct 15, 2021, 5:48 PM

#

I used setinterval, and changed the frame inside a canvas

jovial harbor Oct 15, 2021, 5:48 PM

#

so no moving adjustment for the timer?

alpine pier Oct 15, 2021, 5:49 PM

#

I am not sure im getting the time adjustment part 😅

#

I kept my fps constant, about 45-50 fps

Stack Overflow

setInterval is not run at exact interval

If you create a very simple program that has a setInterval with 1 second delay, and you log the times its function is called, you will notice that the interval 'drifts'.
Basically, it actually take...

#

yeah nw i was just curious

#

if ppl needed to do that

alpine pier Oct 15, 2021, 5:49 PM

#

Ohh, i didn't do anything to adjust this, the video was running quite smoothly 😅

#

lul when is your final scheduled

alpine pier Oct 15, 2021, 5:50 PM

#

I just got the mail this morning. Had my phone yesterday afternoon. I didn't schedule it yet. Was just wondering if there would be react coding rounds or LC

jovial harbor Oct 15, 2021, 5:50 PM

#

no idea

#

i read on glassdoor that it would be more frontend based

#

i think they distinguish between frontend and backend pretty heavily

alpine pier Oct 15, 2021, 5:51 PM

#

I asked the schedule, and they said 30 mins to go over the project, 45*3 technical and 15 mins fot QnA

jovial harbor Oct 15, 2021, 5:51 PM

#

since they need frontend specialists to hit the ground running

alpine pier Oct 15, 2021, 5:51 PM

#

Oh wow 🤯

jovial harbor Oct 15, 2021, 5:51 PM

#

alpine pier I asked the schedule, and they said 30 mins to go over the project, 45*3 technic...

alpine pier Oct 15, 2021, 5:51 PM

#

I'm not an expert in react. I usually hack stuff together, lol

jovial harbor Oct 15, 2021, 5:51 PM

#

i just had 45*3 and they told me there was a q & a but it never happened

alpine pier Oct 15, 2021, 5:52 PM

#

I hope they allow referring the internet for help in these rounds

#

At least for FE 😅

jovial harbor Oct 15, 2021, 5:52 PM

#

yeah they should

#

i didn't use anything for final rounds but for phone screen i needed to look up docs for python library

alpine pier Oct 15, 2021, 5:53 PM
