In this video, the expert doesn't have the opportunity to see the candidate's resume or ask questions about years of experience and similar topics.
This is the fourth video in this series, but the videos are not interconnected and can be watched in any order. I have other videos on my channel.
Expert: Konstantin Kozlov - Frontend Lead with extensive experience recruiting developers at various large companies.
Experiment moderator: Alexander Shirochkin - Frontend Lead, mentor, author of the tg channel "Sanya on IT."

I also simply write interesting and useful things about IT.
The interview wasn't stuffy or academic (although we did talk a bit about specifications). There were many questions about experience using various techniques in real code. The practical part of the interview was conducted in a code review format, which I always like, as I believe this format more effectively demonstrates a candidate's skills without wasting time writing basic concepts.
