“Oh dear ... you say you actually did that to some poor candidate ...??” ;-)
Yes, I always ask job candidates to write code. I'm often surprised when a candidate “talks a good game” ... but then “struggles” when asked to write “actual working code”. Perhaps I'm being unfair -- though I'm sure you would pass with flying colours -- but I always insist that the code actually runs. I don't accept extemporaneous code™ or even “a quasi-Perl sketch with C++ comments”(!)® ;-) I'm still not at all confident of my interviewing skills though. See On Interviewing and Interview Questions for some history of my struggles with interviewing over the years. In reply to Re^2: Rosetta Dispatch Table (Interview Question)
