QUESTION 19 OF 30

Give me examples of when you elect to use infinite scroll and pagination.

Another way an interviewer can ask you a technical or operational question his request that you provide examples. The answer to this question is similar to when you are asked to discuss or describe a technique or methodology. If possible, you should try to provide examples similar to the features of the applications you are likely to be working on for the organization. Remember to keep your answers brief and to expect follow-up questions from the interviewer.

"I am incorporating infinite scrolling into my applications more frequently. This is because infinite scrolling provides users with a better experience since they can use simple gestures to advance the page. An example of this is an article or blog which contains ads. The user is more likely to click on the ads when scrolling rather than advancing to a new page. I still use pagination if there are distinct artifacts or components within the application the user is searching for or may want to access. Pagination works better than infinite scrolling for this type of activity. An example of this is e-commerce applications or informative articles similar to Wikipedia."
