The annual autumn recruitment began again, here from the network to sort out some from the interviewer’s experience and experience, applicable to most of the technical positions, hoping to be helpful to the interviewer.

The preparatory work

Interviewees should try their best to understand the enterprise in detail. Besides job requirements, they can also learn about the enterprise’s values, document style and technology stack through different channels to judge whether it meets their expectations. In fact, looking for a job is similar to looking for a partner. It is a process of matching each other. The higher the degree of matching, the longer the relationship will be.

Professional knowledge is well prepared. Interviewers will have different emphasis on the assessment of different technical positions. The professional investigation section of LeanCloud usually covers the following aspects:

  • Basics: Basic data structures and algorithms;
  • The application of classical algorithms such as sorting and binary search in reality;
  • A basic understanding of probability;
  • An understanding of time and space complexity;
  • Professional questions related to the position (iOS, Android, back-end architecture, etc.).

Decent interview etiquette, give each other a good experience, although most Internet companies do not make up and wear formal clothes for the interviewees or employees, but everyone must dress appropriately, neat and clean; Punctuality is important for both phone and in-person interviews.

Clear and accurate expression ability. The communication and expression ability examined in the interview is actually very simple. The speech is organized, and the question goes straight to the key points and core, without confusing the concept, beating around the bush and being vague. Good communication skills at work are also a plus in the workplace. If you are not good at this part of the interview, you can practice the interview before the interview.

The interview process

The interview usually starts with a self-introduction. Non-graduate candidates can start with recent work experience or work experience that matches the position. Recent graduates can talk about internship experience and awards they have received at school. Try to fill in any parts of your resume that you can’t show so that the interviewer can understand more about it.

General technical job recruitment site will arrange the coding test, this part focuses on the idea of solving the problem, candidates should communicate with the interviewer when solving the problem, explain their ideas, such as why to use if/else instead of switch case, so that the interviewer can understand their thinking process. It also gives the interviewer a sense of how you work in a team on a daily basis. When you have a difficult problem, you can also ask your interviewer for help. The interviewer is usually your future colleague or your future boss. The communication style of solving the problem can also help you know whether the two parties will match in the future.

In each interview, the candidate can use it as a learning opportunity, and even if they fail, they will learn something.

Matters needing attention

  • Punctuality, basic grooming;
  • Hard power must pass;
  • Build your personal presence and show off on blogs, Github, etc., so that interviewers can get to know you from all angles.
