> When I interview a candidate, I focus primarily on what they've done.
I like to hear candidates explain how they understood and met the customer's requirements. The code is only part of the success.

My goal for interviewing is to either hire the person, or not hire the person but have them walk away feeling like they got something out of our time together. Often I can quickly tell that the person isn't right for the role, in which case I will politely explain that to them and offer whatever advice I can.
