🚀 Interview Experience at a Startup – A True Test of Fundamentals Tomorrow, I gave an interview at a startup. I didn’t even know the company name before the call. But the interview turned out to be a powerful revision of my core fundamentals. The interviewer didn’t ask anything fancy. No tricky puzzles. No DSA. No frameworks talk. He went straight to the basics. 🔹 JavaScript • What is hoisting? • What is closure? • Difference between map and reduce • What is filter? • Difference between slice and splice 🔹 React • What is Virtual DOM? • What is dependency array in useEffect? • What is key in React lists? 🔹 Backend / Node.js • What is Node.js? • What is CORS? • What is JWT? • What is middleware? • What is the use of next()? And at that moment, I realized something very important… 👉 Interviews don’t test how many frameworks you know. 👉 They test how strong your fundamentals are. This interview felt like a mirror. It showed me that strong basics in JavaScript, React, and Node.js matter more than anything else. If your foundations are clear, you can walk into any React / React Native / MERN interview with confidence. Sometimes, interviews are not about selection. They are about direction. Tomorrow, I got mine. Back to sharpening the basics. 🚀 #JavaScript #ReactJS #NodeJS #ReactNative #WebDevelopment #InterviewExperience #Learning #MERNStack
