Q&a session (including recruitment requirements)

In order to show our sincerity, we launched a Q&A session to collect questions from past candidates to answer your doubts and improve your pass rate!

  • Focus: currently the team is recruiting P6 and P7, with slots available in Beijing/Hangzhou, first come, first served.

Q: What is the interview process and speed?

There are four rounds of interviews and one round of online written examination. The boss of the department has said that the process must be fast, or THE TL will be fined. The interval of each round is 2-3 days.

Q: Does the front end of Taobao take an examination of foundation take an examination of much “foundation”? How much do you need to know about THE basics of JS?

Speaking of reason, we are very concerned about the basis. Of course, the requirements of each department are different. From our point of view, what we need more is your JavaScript base pass. Basic data structures and algorithms and network protocols are required, but not strictly required, not handwritten red-black trees but at least able to judge the closed loop of linked lists. As to take an examination of many foundations, this is really bad to generalize. Closure? Prototype chain? Inheritance? Es6 grammar sugar? Base status codes and these are all things to check. You should have an answer to the question of how much JavaScript you know. You should. You should know everything.

Q: Is there an age limit for social recruitment?

Yes, but not mandatory, such as a 35-year-old interview p6, then not ok. Basically we are based on work experience, P6:2-5 years of work experience p7:5-10 years of work experience. There were accidents, of course, but not many. Like me… Lucky in a year and a half, but also almost mount the final surface.

Q: How much does the algorithm require?

The algorithm is not strict, but there are certain requirements. The basic assessment is linked list, binary tree, red black tree (less), and with some practical problems assessment. Remember, algorithms are about practicing, not memorizing. You can’t go to war that way, and you’ll get caught

Q: What is the minimum education background and age requirement?

The current requirement is a full-time undergraduate degree. Although we don’t explicitly say 211/985 is required, we have to admit that this is a plus.

Q: What are the requirements of the tech stack?

The current recruiting tech stack has no requirements. Although we focus on React, there is also a big man in the team who used to only use VUE before, but now React and Rax are playing fast and loose. Similarly, when we screen resumes, we don’t jam the tech stack

Q: Is there any requirement for working years for P6-P7?

Yes, but not mandatory, such as a 35-year-old interview p6, then not ok. Basically we are based on work experience, P6:2-5 years of work experience p7:5-10 years of work experience. There were accidents, of course, but not many.
