      Hythe, Kent, South East England, England
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Holiday Extras (Hythe, Kent, South East England, England) in Oct 2022

      Interview

      3 Steps process. Step 1 is an informal conversation with their recruitment team to get a better idea of your and their expectations, level of experience and ask any questions. Step 2 is a coding test, I found these quite challenging! The coding test for me was JS-based with either a focus on nodejs or React and 2 questions (1 simple, 1 harder) with a 2-3hr time limit. Step 3 White-boarding session onsite (however I didn't get this far).

      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Holiday Extras (Bristol, England) in Feb 2020

      Interview

      At home assessment which was then "reviewed" by a developer at Holiday Extras. I found the review to be extremely disappointing. I was told that there were several issues with my submission, all of which didn't make sense and could be countered. The "best" one was that I was told by adding a small React hooks library I had "bloated" the web application... even though it scored 99/100 on Google Lighthouse (whilst I may add that the holidayextras home page scores less than 50!).
