Google Frontend Interview With A Frontend Expert

In this video, I conduct a mock Google frontend interview with a frontend expert, Conner Ardman, who's also the FrontendExpert course creator and an ex-Facebook software engineer. As a Google Software Engineer, I interviewed dozens of candidates. This is exactly the type of frontend coding interview that you would get at Google or any other big tech company.

Thanks for having me on, it was a lot of fun! 😀

I guess this is what the difference is between an experienced developer and someone like me...
I would have run my code 10 times before writing another function...
my man is writing logics with such confidence...

Because of your youtube interview content, I've bought your algo expert course for a full year. The marketing worked.

[Skalexsong]

This is such a great example of a very confident interview, gotta learn a lot to be more like that.

[DriveandThrive]

The speed in which he did this in is quite impressive. Makes me realize how far I have to go!

[DebashishGhoshOfficial]

This shows how important it is to choose a proper data structure for the problem. Otherwise it would be difficult to navigate the code and understand what is being done.

Also, the courses are very very good, thanks for creating them. Looking forward to “Mobile expert”!

[CoderGrammer]

As a primarily back end dev, this was eye opening! Thanks buddy

These interviews are super realistic of what its like to be a FE dev..

I always code using a web based IDE, implement features with another dev looking over my shoulder, and explain every decision I make as I make them out loud.

Yo Clem, I just want to say you and Conner are great teachers. You guys have explained concepts that were “scary” and now they’re not.

[explore-learn-share]

This is outstanding. Using plain html, css and javascript for wonderful page rendering

[yafetbefkadu]

Idk why I feel like watching these just teaches me more things Iv never seen or tried before you can always learn from others and try it yourself

[loristnorton]

Thinking about the solutions is one thing. But properly articulating it with a coherent accuracy is without a doubt a mark of someone with confidence and experience.

[hemantprasad]

Thank you Clement 💓💓💓. Was waiting for it for so long....

[leeboyin]

Great demonstration! As both interviewer and interviewee, I learned a lot from this video, thanks.

Interesting approach with building the DOM using DOM. My first intuition was to create a template literal and just call functions inside of it. Kind of like templating language.

[MikeBertelsenDK]

The interviewer is really intense.. Kinda stresses me out..
But it was very interesting to watch, great content, challenges and I learned something new so that's always worth celebrating!

[ericwango]

I completely understand the logic and it doesn't seem too hard, but it would take me half a day to actually get the right logic and code it up like he did hahahah

[twoxddb]

That's just very cool, a few times ago I couldn't explain how works with the DOM. It's just really simple and very useful.

hey! I am a junior java developer now fo several month and have 1 year BootCamp behind as well (backend java) - I think I now understand what "front-end" development means! And it is beautiful! It fulfills the picture, it is just soooo good :) gl with everything :))
