I’ll have a live coding interview on Thursday but it’s the first time that I’ll have this kind of interview. The job offer is about node and nest js. I have 1.5 years of experience with Nodejs but no experience at all which NestJS. Any tips you can give me?

    I was thinking they would test my ability to adapt to technologies and expect me to look at the documentation to create a small app

      I was thinking that they wouldn’t do that as reading docs and such take time. Time better spent getting to know you and selling themselves.

      If you’re feeling the imposter syndrome a bit, go and build and app to help yourself help. However, you say you’re nodejs rather than nestjs. How’s your front end in general?

      I would say go over your resume and the fundamentals. Typically for Node devs focusing on callbacks, promises, async/await, event loop, procedural/functional programming and making sure you’re solid on those is good. A little more would be API design. If you’re going through a recruiter sometimes you could ask for an agenda of the interview process so you can better prepare?
