Web Accessibility (a11y) interview practice

Accessibility interviews are now standard for senior frontend, design-systems, and platform roles. Practice WCAG 2.2 criteria, ARIA usage and misuse, semantic HTML, screen-reader testing, and the legal context (ADA, EAA) behind a11y requirements.

Sample questions

What a Web Accessibility (a11y) round actually looks like.

These are the kinds of questions you'll drill. Real mock rounds will generate many more — tailored to the exact JD you paste in.

1

Walk me through how a screen reader announces a modal dialog — what HTML and ARIA do you need?

2

Why is "ARIA: bad ARIA is worse than no ARIA" a common saying? Give an example.

3

How would you make a custom autocomplete component accessible? Step through the keyboard and screen-reader behaviour.

4

Explain colour-contrast requirements in WCAG 2.2 AA, and how you'd audit a design system against them.

5

What's the EAA, and how does it change accessibility requirements for EU-facing products in 2025?

Why practice Web Accessibility (a11y) with a mock round?

Reading Web Accessibility (a11y) questions isn't the same as answering them live. You need the rep — the pause, the clarifying question, the moment where you realize you forgot the framework. We put you in that exact spot, then show you what a strong answer would have looked like.

  • Questions grounded in your actual JD
  • Voice or text — practice your delivery
  • Model answer + specific gaps after every question
  • Follow-ups that drill into your weakest answers
  • Pause and resume anytime
