Good evening, everyone! My name is Hari, and I am a fellow developer. Today, I’d like to share my interview experience with ValueLabs. They conducted two rounds of interviews, and I will walk you through each round and the questions that were asked. This information may help you in your future interviews.
The position I applied for is related to Next.js, a framework built on top of React. Here are some of the key questions I encountered:
File-based Routing vs. App-based Routing:
Use cases for useMemo
and useCallback
:
useMemo
, useCallback
, and React.memo
are utilized.Dynamic Routing:
Versions of React Router and Next.js:
Understanding useEffect
:
useEffect
behaves when no dependencies are passed versus when dependencies are included.Throughout this first round, I answered questions focused on the key phases of React's lifecycle: mounting, updating, error handling, and unmounting. After this round, I was informed by HR that I had successfully moved on to the next stage.
In the second round, the questions took a deeper dive:
Context API vs. Redux:
Server vs. Client Components:
Payment Integration:
Error Handling in Next.js and React:
Revisiting useMemo
and useCallback
:
Additionally, some technical questions required me to write output based on callbacks and setTimeout.
Having cleared both rounds, I spoke with the HR representative who mentioned the position was currently on hold but may open up in the future.
I'm excited to share this experience with you all, as I hope it assists you in your interview journeys. Thank you for your continued support in making this community grow. Each of you contributes to its success!
