The programmer selection interview

摘要

Many organizations have very elaborate techniques for selecting new employees. Most of these are screening processes to select applicants who will eventually be given the opportunity of an interview with a program project manager or supervisor. This interview is frequently the final determining factor in the selection process of a new computer programmer. Unless the interview is conducted in a manner that is both fair and revealing, a course of action will be begun that will be difficult to change at a later time. With the cost of personnel now being the most expensive item in program development projects, this personnel selection decision is now more critical than ever before.
