Zalando: How to pass the interview

Here is the article.

Excerpt:

For the API design, you need a basic understanding of REST and HTTP. It is not expected you know fancy media types or the intricacies of HTTP proxies but you need to know how to structure an API and its data using HTTP and JSON. You should have a look at the Richardson’s maturity model (till level 2) and perhaps have a quick look at his book, RESTful Web Services. (Richardson’s newer book, RESTful Web APIs, deals with REST level 3, i.e. hypermedia controls, which is more advanced and out of scope for the interview)

Actionable Items


I just could not believe that I should read restful web services book much early, I work full time from 2010 to 2019. I did not do book keeping every year, I did not read web services book every year from 2010 to 2019. 

This life style is ridiculous, I just could not believe that I did make choice.
