What was your experience? They will tell about their company in 5 min and rest 5 min you can tell that I can HTML, CSS, JS and they will take you without asking single technical question. Then they will fire you next day stating that they didn't like your work/code eventhough OR you are working slow.

Can you do HTML, CSS, JS? What have you done so far?
I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Robert Half (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2014
Interview
Pretty laid back interview. No white board. I'm interviewing with an agency here. So, I know a bit more about the work than they do. The interviews that matter more are the ones with the employers. I was sent on an interview with Eveo.com, where I met with the CTO, and a couple of lead developers there. We discussed my experience and their needs. They didn't particularly grill me on any specific points in my knowledge base, so it wasn't too grueling. I worked there for about 1 3/4 months on a couple of projects, finished them up and they didn't have need any more at the moment. It's the nature of contracting for them that they hire on contractors for projects when they can bill a specific client for them. When they can't bill for the time, there's no work.

Be honest about your experience and technical abilities and you won't have any trouble.
