UPDATE: SERIOUSLY GOT A JOB BECAUSE OF THIS! Went to an interview. Interviewer: 'Write an example of closure.' Me: *Writes the example*. Interviewer: 'Namaste JavaScript? 🤔' Me: '😐'. Interviewer: 'Even I had the same example in mind!' We high-fived each other. Happily working ever after! 🧱
I was explaining Hoisting with a demo. Suddenly the interviewer said, 'You watched Namaste JavaScript videos, right?' I said yes. He said, 'OK, let's move to the next question. Your concept is clear. I study from there too!' You're trending, sir! 🚀
I had a JS interview a while ago and noticed most questions were straight from your series. This series is amazing; I've never felt JavaScript like this before! ✨
The interviewer asked me if I follow Akshay Saini while I was explaining closures. You are rocking bro, keep it up! Thanks for the videos. 🙌
Interviewer: 'What is Hoisting?' Me: *Explains with your example*. Interviewer: 'Oh, you watched Namaste JavaScript?' Me: 'Yes sir!' Interviewer: 'Great, let's move forward.' It was that simple. 😊
Interviewer: 'What is Hoisting in JavaScript?' Me: 'Sir, I have watched Namaste JavaScript.' Interviewer: *Smiles and moves to the next question*. The confidence it gives is real! 🔥
I recently interviewed a candidate for a FEE role and when I asked him about Web APIs, he said, 'It's a browser superpower'. I was bloody confused, but only now do I know why!
One of the interviewers suggested your channel. I had studied bits and pieces of the concepts before but never fully understood them, and now you have made them so clear! At 14:18, when you asked the person to stay for a few more minutes, it was so kind of you. You are teaching people with no personal gain. Thank you. I will recommend your channel to my friends.
After explaining JS in-depth, the interviewer was like: 'Salary kitna loge? Discuss karle !!' 😄
Interviewer: 'What is Hoisting in JavaScript?' Person who watched Namaste JavaScript: 'Sir, I have watched Namaste JavaScript!'
The interviewer asked me to explain the event loop. I explained it to him in-depth, just like Akshay does, and now the interviewer is in sleep mode! 😴
Thank you so much! I attended an interview yesterday, and they asked me about first-class functions. I was able to answer it because of this. Otherwise, I would have ended up saying, 'I don't know, ma'am.' 😭😭😭😭❤❤❤
I was in an interview, and they asked me about Execution Context. I explained it in your way. This is the first time an interviewer has called me after the interview to ask, 'Where are you studying from?'
