Recruiter to HM to rejected with no feedback. The interview process for Senior Staff Frontend roles seems to prioritize backend/infrastructure nomenclature over frontend reality. For example, I was pressed on managing 'SLAs'- a concept that virtually doesn't exist in a legal/customer-contract sense due to the uncontrolled nature of the client-side environment. In 15+ years of experience, a Staff Engineer's role is to define SLIs/SLOs (via CWV/RUM) to protect the user experience, not to negotiate financial service credits for LCP targets. If you're a frontend expert, be prepared for 'gotcha' questions that apply backend mental models to the frontend in ways that don't actually scale to real-world production. Also be prepared to answer questions entirely above their head without them being able to comprehend the impact. I'm sure the role will be more about educating their people over actually doing work. The HM is remote, but of course their positions ask for hybrid.
