Software Developer Interviews are difficult and painful for nearly everyone involved. Interviewers are looking to find great additions to the team, interviewees are looking for great places to work, sometimes everyone ends up a bit disappointed. So what can we do to improve the experience of software developer job interviews, for interviewers and interviewees? If you are looking for a job, what should you look for from your interviewers, and how should you present yourself best to impress them? If you are looking to recruit, how can you do better than list some arbitrary list of technical skills and ask hard questions that even you had to look up the answer to online?

In this episode, Dave Farley, of Continuous Delivery, talks about his experience of technical interviews. Dave has conducted hundreds of software engineer job interviews and has some thoughts on how we could do better as both interviewers and as interviewees. So check out Dave’s technical interview tips, and let us know yours in the comments below.
