I manage a team of devs and we have been adding new team members be it for replacements or to assist the team during critical points in the projects.
My suggestion would be: no need to be anxious. A good manager will plan to integrate new devs into the team. In my case, the training of a new dev takes around 4-6 weeks. During this time, I always clarify what I expect from the new dev, which project I will assign him/her to, how the processes in the companies are, dev process in the team, and introduce her/him to key people in the company.
It really helps if the you actively raise questions to your direct manager and seek guidance from the other team members during the training. Let the team sees you that you can work with them. This is one of the soft skills that will bring you far. If your manager hires you then he/she is sure of your technical skill. Technical skills can be taught. Soft skills, on the other hand, are hard to build.

This has been entirely my approach and experience as well. In some ways I would go further.
If your manager hires you then he/she is sure of your technical skill.
If I hire you, I know your technical skill (high or low), which IMO can be built easily, provided you have demonstrated the right soft skills around learning, communication and team-work, which are far harder to assess before hiring, but are also the foundation in which your technical skills will grow, and also more valuable to the company.
