How to use this set in a recorded first round.

Ask one thing at a time, and keep each prompt short enough for one take. This set focuses on component structure, state, rendering bugs, and reviewing React work with teammates in other time zones.

How many questions should a recorded remote React engineer interview include?

This page lists 6. You do not have to use every prompt. Pick the ones that fit the role, then ask every candidate that same set.

Yes, for that interview. The same prompts, in the same order, make the recordings comparable.

Can I add these remote React engineer questions to a Hirekal interview?

Yes. Create the interview, add the prompts, and send the link. Candidates record in the browser. Your team watches before booking a live conversation.

Do these video answers get an automatic hiring score?
