As a hiring manager, I can understand why you didn’t get the job. I agree that it’s not a “good” question, sure, but when you’re hiring for a job where the demand is high because a lot is on the line, the last thing you’re going to do is hire someone who says their skills are “6.5/10” after almost a decade of experience. They wanted to hear how confident you were in your ability to solve problems with .NET. They didn’t want to hear “aCtUaLlY, nO oNe Is PeRfEcT.” They likely hired the person who said “gee, I feel like my skills are 10/10 after all these years of experience of problem solving. So far there hasn’t been a problem I couldn’t solve with .NET!” That gives the hiring manager way more confidence than something along the lines of “6.5/10 after almost a decade, but hire me because no one is perfect.” (I am over simplifying what you said, because this is potentially how they remembered you.)

Unfortunately, interviews for developer jobs can be a bit of a crap shoot.

I’m not crazy about Google’s part in Go, but man, I’ve been using Go a lot and I love it. It feels like a “modern C” that lets you focus on logic instead of memory allocation. I know it violates your requirements, but I’d suggest checking it out anyway! 🤷‍♂️

I’ll certainly give this a read!

Are you saying that nix will cache all the dependencies within itself/its “container,” or whatever its container replacement would be called?

You can have my MacBook Pro when you pry it from my cold dead hands!

Except for the macOS thing. We're a Linux shop, noob ;)

Ha! I’d be fine working on a Linux machine! It’s that *nix terminal I’m addicted to. I just love the MacOS trackpad “gestures” and Homebrew has been a pleasure. Everything I deploy is to Docker/Linux environments anyway. I just really don’t want to develop on Windows if I don’t have to.

Thanks for the feedback! 🫡

Genuinely curious to see what questions you found to be too detailed and causing you to wonder if you’d want to hire that person. I had a lot of questions in my comment here and I’d love your feedback on them as a company owner!

(Thanks in advance!)

This is 4D chess right here. I didn’t consider this when signing up.

Eh, I’m not really comparing, just offering what my time looks like since I’m still a “developer” of sorts. I’m still heavily involved with code, and I do end up making commits that ultimately deploy to production.

(I’m sure someone out there in an IC role would love to compare, especially if they’re considering taking a more managerial role.)
