10+ years ago I've been applying for junior ruby dev roles while still at university. At one company they gave me a pen and a piece of paper, told me to sort an array and gave me a couple of minutes to write my answer. I assumed I'm at command line, so I generated a rails scaffold (model, controller, view, db migrations), created and migrated the database, opened a database prompt and wrote a SQL "select ... order by" statement. I think I wanted to demonstrate that I know rails and related tools; but I was also stressed and didn't communicate well. After looking at my answer they quickly ended the interview, told me "we'll be in touch" and I got a rejection email on my way home. |
