What interview techniques should you use to hire the best React developer?
When you hire skilled React developers, remember that the goal of your interview is not to intimidate candidates with difficult questions, rather it is to gain a full assessment of their skills during the limited amount of time.
As such, here are a few recommended interview techniques and questions that recruiters or hiring managers can apply or ask to select the best React developers from the rest.
Ask them to describe the structure of their recent project
Examine your candidate’s abilities by asking them to describe and explain the most recent project they have done. If needed, they may also illustrate their project using a sheet of paper or board. By having them do this, recruiters can determine two things.
First, recruiters can identify immediately a React developer’s knowledge and experience with React and software development. In addition, it can also show what additional skills a candidate may possess such as good leadership skills. Aside from these, you can also check the candidate’s level of involvement with the project with how they can clearly discuss their project in depth and in detail.
Second, recruiters can see if a candidate can clearly explain a technical concept. Is it understandable for a non-technical person? In addition, check the candidate’s non-verbal cues as well such as a confident gesture or posture to assess if a candidate good personal attributes such as public speaking and adaptability. The ability to explain technical ideas or processes to a non-tech person is a necessary skill to have especially if you are looking for someone in a leadership role.
Conduct technical tests
Many would think this is already part of a developer’s interview process, however, only a few companies conduct technical tests. To thoroughly screen and assess candidates, candidates must go through a technical test. Employers may opt to conduct online programming tests that give employers an idea on how a candidate thinks. When hiring React developers, it is best to always look for someone who doesn’t only know how to code, but also how to solve.
If you can’t give an online technical test, recruiters may ask candidates to show a sample code instead. This will give you A developer’s knowledge and expertise of the framework or language can already show with just an average of 5-10 lines of code (two or three sample codes).
Here are a few sample test questions that you can ask your candidate to code.
Q: Code the equivalent of the following code using React.createElement.
const element = (
<h1 className="greeting">
Hello, world!
</h1>
);
A:
const element = React.createElement(
'h1',
{className: 'greeting'},
'Hello, world!'
);
Q: Below is a sample code. How would you fix or improve the following component?
class App extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
name: this.props.name || 'Anonymous'
}
}
render() {
return (
<p>Hello {this.state.name}</p>
);
}
}
A: There are several possible ways to solve this. A developer may remove the state and use props, implement getDerivedStateFromProps, or (preferably) change to a function components.
Q: JSX, short for JavaScript XML, is a type of file that uses JavaScript with HTML like a template syntax. The file creates robust applications and boosts its performance. Can you give a simple example of JSX?
A:
render(){
return(
<div>
<h1> Hello World </h1>
</div>
);
}

The model enables in-house teams to easily expand or reduce team members.
