"It was a management position so there weren't any coding questions"

Interesting; when I interviewed for a management position (test manager) it was nothing but coding questions, including the infamous "reverse a string" question. ("Would like that optimized for space or speed? In-place, or do I get a buffer? Can you tell I've heard this a zillion times before?") I can understand wanting a test manager to be more than an empty suit, but yoiks.

There's different kinds of management positions other than software development management. HN is notorious for forgetting that.
