If there is a bi=ug in your help file, where do you write it?
Why do you want to work here?
What are your strengths and weaknesses?
All three interviews were quite straightforward. Review of previous documents written and discussion of my experience and ability to perform the job.
They asked detailed questions about my understanding of the technology. This was not unexpected, but I got the impression they wanted me to have a strong aptitude for technology--not just an ability to write about it, but a love of learning it and an ability to understand it well.
Why would you fit into their corporate climate (they tell you nobody leaves once they get hired, but a little research shows high job turnover, esp. in the writing team). Such incongruities undermined the interview for me. Perhaps it would be your cup of tea. I don't sense corroboration or collegiate work ethic.
Not so much a single question as a debate regarding design pattern choices and implementation details.
Did I know what the company was. What did I think of the website.
They asked basic questions about my experience and skills. It felt very rushed. I don't believe they were really interested in placing me, only mining sensitive information from me. Very shady.
