Technical Round 160 min
The first round combo of theory and coding, and it started with some React and frontend questions Frontend Theory:
- The interviewer asked about useState vs useReducer, and I explained how useReducer is better for complex state management
- I was asked about React.memo(), and we discussed when it’s useful for preventing unnecessary re-renders
- They also asked about useCallback and useMemo, and I explained how each helps with performance optimization in React
- Apart from React, there were some general data structure questions, including linked lists and dynamic programming, just to check my foundational knowledge Coding Questions: Kth Element of Two Sorted Arrays- binary search approach Drag-and-Drop List in React
