Qs I asked during my latest tech interview process I went through as an applicant:
- What's your favourite Slack channel?
- What's the mix of jr to mid to snr engineers on your team? Would you change that if you could?
- When was the last time you were able to pay off some tech debt?
- What is the onboarding process like?
- Do you use C4 (or similar) to document systems and (micro)services?
- What would a successful first 6 months look like?

Are you prepping for interviews that you just have to CRUSH? ⚡️ Look no further than my Interview Cheatsheet and Prep Worksheet…
I amazed myself today by finishing a technical take-home in three hours.
It consisted of writing a piece of software from scratch (for me, using golang) that makes continuous writes to a database and inserts an error about 10% of the time.
It also emits counter metrics to a prometheus endpoint when those events happen. With golang runtime because I am a huge nerd.
Oh it also is fully deployable to kubernetes to work with the postgres db and metrics exporter.
Works on my machine... if not a homerun let's hope at least a three-base-hit...
... or a three BASS hit, wubba wubba wubba, come on my selector!!! hire me!!!
