Rephased garbage is still garbage.
If the authors could write a tutorial, or anything that taught you useful stuff, they would have.
"Interview questions" is a cop out for "I know very little in depth, so here's some surface stuff that I read in books" IMHO.
If it was up to me, I'd delete the lot! But...it isn't up to me (which is probably a Good Thing)

Rephrase in a sense that removal of the "Interview" word.
I just read an article here about Code review interview questions. Its total BS. I really wanted to comment and say pull down this blog.
It would be interesting if he presented some common mistakes or findings from his experience. It was just a intelligent "reuse" of words from the internet.
In reality if you are experienced person you will be asked "How did you handle code review in your current job. Anything worth sharing about few reviews" or "what do you think of very rigorous code review on all the codes and its implication?"
For a newbie just out of college, Code review will be just a abstract concept and honestly he should answer that he did not experienced it.
cheers,

Trouble is that if you take out the word "interview" it's obvious that it's loosely related aphorisms about a subject with little or no real knowledge - and the authors don't want that.
I suspect that most of them are posted just to get an article count for a resume rather than for any "real" purpose.

Exactly, I can whip up an article in 10 min about the "Interview question for Reliability Engineering". Will it be useful? Nope.
I just feel bad that most of them in CP are from fellow Indians and ponder what is the state of recruitment going on there. I better stay here and return back when I have taken my boots off.

I only like one set of interview questions that I have read and liked was was from Scott Hanselman and all he gave was the questions, the learning and understanding came from you the reader.
the remainder are just *******

One interview I went to it turned out that they had used the same questions that I found via google two days earlier.
I got the job, however soon left as it was not the sort of place I wanted to work(not meeting the other developers at either of the interviews did give me a bad gut feeling and most people in the business appeared to be rather miserable) - the mere fact that they had taken questions off google showed how uninterested they were in recruiting the right person.

I see Interview Questions as a nice refresher to prepare for an interview, but if I am giving the interview I will ask about their experience with that question.
For instance, if I ask someone what a delegate is and they are somewhat close, I will then ask them if they've used it in real life and to provide an example. By digging a little deeper, you can get a feel of their level.
I cannot go by someone's resume all the time, because half of the time it says architect.

Those "articles" are utterly useless.
I have had a couple of people in front of me interviewing for a C# job and give me canned answers. It's easy to sniff them out. The tone and cadence of their answer changes when you get on a question they've memorized and I do throw some of those questions in. But, simplify things and you really get a sense of what you're dealing with. I've had people not able to tell me the difference between "public" and "private". See ya! A lot of the people I interview don't even make it to the whiteboard to write some code.
It's frickin' sad that there are "schools" and hiring managers our there that think "any monkey can write code". Wrong! The monkeys outnumber the humans that know what they're doing 20 to 1.

True. I haven't had the joy of interviewing anyone in the last 2 years.

As the first one appears to be spectacularly inaccurate and not at all funny I didn't bother reading beyond it. If these are the best, what are the rest like?
