In order to avoid bounced emails we would like you to submit your results by uploading the relevant zip file to a shared Google Drive folder. In order to obtain the URL for this folder please supply your Gmail or Google-based email address to either your agent or the JUST EAT member of staff who assigned you the test.

Please make this a single zip file named {yourname}-{role-applied-for}.zip containing:

  1. a single markdown file with the answers to the technical questions
  2. one folder containing the technical test

Coding Test

JUST EAT has a public API available at https://public.je-apis.com/ that you can use to get restaurant information, including restaurant details and delivery information.

As an example, https://public.je-apis.com/restaurants?q=se19 returns a list of restaurants that deliver to the outcode SE19, including some basic restaurant information.

The API requires you specify a set of valid request headers.

Accept-Tenant: uk
Accept-Language: en-GB
Authorization: Basic VGVjaFRlc3RBUEk6dXNlcjI=
Host: public.je-apis.com

The task is to create an application that accepts an outcode as a parameter. The application should then display the following information about each restaurant that delivers to that outcode.

  • Name
  • Rating
  • Types of food for the restaurant

Platform Choice

You can create the application as either a command line application, web application or mobile application in any of the following platforms

  • .NET or Ruby for command line applications
  • .NET, PHP, Ruby or JavaScript for web applications
  • iOS, Andriod or Windows Mobile for mobile applications

Think about the type of work you would like to do at JUST EAT and choose an appropriate application type and platform.

Task requirements

Feel free to spend as much or as little time on the exercise as you like as long as the following requirements have been met.

  • Please complete the user story below.
  • Your code should compile and run in one step.
  • Feel free to use whatever frameworks / libraries / packages you like.

User Story

As a user running the application
I can **view a list of restaurants in a user submitted outcode (ex. SE19) **
So that I know which restaurants are currently available

If you have chosen a native mobile application platform please also include the following:

As a user running the application
I can view the the restaurant logo along side restaurant information
So that I know exactly which restaurants are currently available

As a user running the application
I can use GPS to find my current postcode to retrieve restaurant results
So that I dont need to type it in

Acceptance criteria

  • For the known outcode se19, results are returned
  • The Name, Cuisine Types and Rating of the restaurant are displayed
