How I review code

It's kind of amusing to me that a lot of engineering interviews also seem to be focused on doing things that you generally won't and shouldn't be doing for the position. What's the point of seeing if someone knows data structures and algorithms they won't be using if they can't write a web application that interfaces with a SQL database without doing queries in a for loop?

Isn't this the basic architecture of a node js "event loop" Cms that gets content from a rdbms? ;-)

  # pseudo code
  While new_user_request
    query_db with request parameters

I know it's not what you meant, you meant do the above, rather than:

    # pseudo code
  While new_user_request
    query_db for user data
    query_db for session data

    For parameter,
        user_data,
        session_data
        query_db with each item
