i did not move on to the interview but the OA had a front end question (weird) and a leetcode hard. It was proctored so idk how they were expecting me to remember the syntax for the front end part when the job description did not have anything about front end in the requirements.

Interview
HireVue behavioral interviews usually consist of five structured questions with no technical component. The focus is on standard topics such as teamwork, leadership, conflict resolution, dealing with failure, and personal motivation. Each response is time-limited, so it’s best to use the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to stay clear and concise. Practice recording yourself to build comfort, maintain eye contact with the camera, and show enthusiasm. Employers mainly want to assess communication, problem-solving, and cultural fit.
