I had an online interview in August 2025 for a Node.js Developer role. Surprisingly, the interview didn’t asked any questions specifically related to Node.js. There was a total of four questions:
1) Self-introduction
2) DSA question
3) Another DSA question
4) An SQL query question
(I’ve added the exact questions below.)
During the problem-solving part, the interviewer did provided hints whenever I seemed stuck, such as suggesting what to check or which approach to try. Once I gave the solution to a question, he simply verified it and moved on without any cross-questioning or deeper discussion.
There wasn't any question related to Node.js or even Javascript, surprisingly. Only DSA and SQL question was asked.
Overall, the experience felt quite average and unengaging. It seemed more like the interviewer was just going through a checklist rather than showing genuine interest in the whole conversation. In the end, he said the HR will contact you and dropped off the call, not giving the chance to ask him about the company or something else.
