Quality feedback is an essential part of professional growth and we love sharing it not only within our team but also with candidates who get interviewed. In this article, we collected some tips from the real feedback given by our CTO Dima and Lead developer Andrew to junior developers. But we also believe that these thoughts can be a good checklist for more experienced developers.
