I was referred for a different UI role by a friend, and I got a call for this role after a month. The recruiter directly called me to my cell instead of dropping a mail, and she introduced herself as a recruiter from ____ company located in San Jose, and I couldn't understand it in spite of asking her to repeat. I remember searching on the Internet for companies in San Jose that started with ”Af...” until I got a mail asking for the availability to interview with F5 Networks. The screening process was decent. It was a 1 hour phone interview using Coderpad where there were lot of verbal questions like differences between promises and observables. There were couple of questions where the interviewer typed a few javascript snippets and asked what the output would be. They covered the scope and setTimeOut concepts. I was asked to demonstrate how event bubbling and stop proportion works.
After a couple of days, I got a mail from the same recruiter saying I have cleared the screening round and I am invited to attend an on-site interview at their San Jose office next week to which I promptly responded my availability for the next week. I was told that someone would contact me soon who'll book my flight tickets and send flight information. I did not hear back for four days (Friday to Monday) which included weekend, so I didn't bother to check with them. Wednesday was supposed to be my onsite interview. When I pinged the recruiter on Tuesday morning asking for my flight details for the next day, I got a reply saying they would have to cancel my onsite because they have found a suitable candidate
