This is not to underplay the importance of a solid background in computer science. Somethings to look for:  \n• Understanding of basic algorithmic concepts  \n• Discuss basic algorithms, how would they find/think/sort  \n• Can they show a wider understanding of databases  \n• Do they have an approach to modelling?  \nDo they stay up to date with the latest developments? If so, how? Probe for their favourite technical books. Who are they following on Twitter, which blogs do they turn to?  \nAre they active on Github? Do they contribute to any open source software projects? Or take part in Hackathons. In short, how strong is their intellectual interest in their chosen field? How is this demonstrated? Ask for side projects (like game development) . Committed, inquisitive candidates will stand out.  \nComputing Science Questions  \nWeb  \n Which [HTTP status](HTTP status) codes classes are used to designate success, client error and server error respectively?  \n Describe event propagation (bubbling phase) in your own words. Is there any other phase in the DOM Event flow that you know of?  \n When do DOMContentLoaded and Load events get fired ?  \n Would you place an async script tag right before ?  \n Describe the same-origin policy as part of the web browser security model. Give a couple of practical limitations it may pose.  \n Why is HTML5 History API so essential for all single page applications?  \n What storage options do modern browsers provide ?  \n Which steps constitute the Critical Rendering Path for web browsers?  \n Why do you think PageVisibility API is useful?  \n Give a basic overview of the Push web technologies available today  \nTry Workable for free, for [15 days:](15 days: www.workable.com)[ ](15 days: www.workable.com)[www.workable.com](15 days: www.workable.com), no downloads or credit card required  \nJavascript  \n What Javascript engines do you know of?  \n Are objects in Javascript passed by reference or by value?  \n What does “1” + 2 + 4 evaluate to? What about “1” == 1 ?  \n Write a code snippet demonstrating the usage of the ES6 Promise API  \nfunction foo(){ }();  \nprototype it?  \n What is this event loop all about? A mouse click would result in a new item being added to the call stack or the task queue?  \n What is alert going to show?  \nvar foo = 1;  \nfunction bar() {  \nif (!foo) {  \nvar foo = 10;  \n}  \nalert(foo);  \n}  \nbar();  \nHTML/CSS  \n Why would you use \u003Cstrong> instead of \u003Cb>?  \n What are some of the key new features in HTML5?  \nIs it generally a good idea to position CSS \u003Clink>s before \u003Cscript> tags?  \nHow is responsive design different from adaptive design?  \n What is the difference between classes and IDs in CSS?  \nelement?","cbCaip1uokrzLymw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaip1uokrzLymw","pdf",621871,"English","# Candidate screening\n## Core technical areas: Web\n## Core technical areas: JavaScript\n## Core technical areas: HTML/CSS","[{\"question\":\"What candidate qualities should be assessed for front-end web roles?\",\"answer\":\"Assess willingness to learn, qualified skills, and passion.
