Ask HN: How should I prepare for Google “Software Engineer,Front End” interview?

I assumed this was a common enough subject of blog posts and Reddit discussions that a Google search should answer your question. Maybe not though. Too sleepy to check right now, but best of luck!

All I can think of is that there are books written about the logic puzzles and algorithms Google uses in their interviews, but take that with a grain of salt.

All of the above. You should be ready to answer standard ds/alg whiteboard questions, have a strong grasp of JavaScript, and be ready to answer system design questions related to client side development.

As far as I know google has standard procedure for hiring software engineers regardless of of front end or backend, phone screenings followed by on-site interviews. You are supposed to have good data structure and algorithmic knowledge. I would suggest to go with data structure and algorithms, also System Design is very important and your past projects ( if you are experienced one ). Try to get as much information as possible from your recruiter about your interview that will surely help.

Best of luck for the interview.

This has made the rounds here previously. Hope it helps:
