The role was for a VueJS position The first round included a brief phone call to discuss the role and to get to know me The second round was a technical call over zoom, I was asked rounds of questions related to code quality, and how I’d make decisions on a project The third call was a culture check and included another zoom call to talk more about myself and my motivations, where I’m interested in learning and etc I received a phone call two days after the third call to explain that due to the 14,000 employees in Ukraine, the senior developers thought I was a great fit for the team but unfortunately the senior developers were under a lot more pressure and they would be unable to hire me at this moment Overall - EPAM was very thorough during the entire process, and very receptive to my enquiries and did not drag their feet during the process.

It was a technical talk about JavaScript and React hooks, my experience with Cloud, when to use callbacks, when to create a closure, the differences between useState and useRef, a list of the React hooks I know, and two practical exercises. TwoSum with JavaScript and debouncing with React
