I am not getting this JOB for sure
-
I had an interview at Sony in Wales years ago which was worse. A bit into the interview the interviewer aked is I could document someone else's code (alarm bell at 3) and then told me I'd got a bit of C code to copy a string wrong and when I did the
forloop expansion it became clear he didn't write any code and why the previous worker had quit and the code was unfinished. The alarm bell was at 11 and I got my running shoes on.Join the cool kids - Come fold with us[^]

yep...they do ask stupid question some time knowingly to test you and some time they just don't know what the heck they are talking about :thumbsup:

Went for a job interview today after the basic question on .net Framework he asked some question on memory management. I answered the question like GC and others…Then he went on to ask “How does .net framework allocate memory” and my answer was… If I wanted to know that I would have learned C or C++ and not C# and If I remember correctly I am here for C# interview and .NET framework does the memory management for me(Well most of the time). :laugh:

Well, for a StringBuilder it generally starts at sixteen characters and then doubles if it needs more.

Q: “How does .net framework allocate memory?”
A: "I don't need to know that in most cases, so .NET has executed Garbage Collection on that piece of allocated information."
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

I see from your other posts that you were offered the job, but you are not accepting the offer. Please don't tell me that's just because of this question.

Yes that might be true but don't you think when the JOB Title say "C# win forms Developer" there should be at least about 10% of question based on C# language my interview lasted for more then one hour and only Question related to c# was "How C# is different from Java". Well i have just received the mail from them and they have offered me the position on senior developer and i really do not understand why...i guess life is unexpected. :) [Edit] and i have decided not to join the organization[/Edit]

Nop...not 'coz of the question but their attitude...i didn't felt like working for those guys
Yeah, I had that feeling when I interviewed at MySpace. Everybody interviewing me had zero sense of humor. I don't think I saw a single smile while I was there.

While I give your response a 5 and it is accurate for most .net developers (I hope) I'm reminded of the person that was hired at a place I worked at didn't know why a DVD wouldn't read in a CD drive. :sigh:
People are more violently opposed to fur than leather because it's safer to harass rich women than motorcycle gangs
That reminds me of once when I called support because my CD drive wasn't working. I had a DVD in it. I know why that wouldn't work though, I just failed to check whether said disk was CD or DVD.

For every 137 C# developers there should be one who knows how the CLR allocates memory or does GC. The number 137 is determined in the same way all the interview questions are created: scientifically ;). Now, if they wanted you to be that 138th developer and the pay/rank was accordingly you have to know memory allocation in .Net. The other developers do not need to know and if they ran into a snag they either go to the 138th developer or they use Google or read a book and find out relatively easy how it is done. We tend to forget that the frameworks are created to make the life easier for most of us and concentrate on the business side of the app and not the memory allocation and similarly deep aspects. When I want to reuse stuff I don't want to learn how stuff does it internally. Today there is no more time for all of us to know everything. Anyway, memory allocation in .Net is an interesting subject and I've read about it in depth 4 years ago. I can't remember much about it and I needed it only once since then. I would be curious of examples when knowledge about internals of .Net memory allocation comes handy in the day to day programming.

They either wanted to know if you knew the difference between the stack and the heap, and when to use one over the other, or were refering to the fact that the GC is good but not perfect, and there are still times when it is necessary to write your Dispose methods.

I believe that you answered very well, right up to the point where you told us, but presumably not the interviewer.."most of the time"..and that is the spot in the interview where you could have both A) stomped on the interviewers toes a little, for a reason that surely escapes me, and B) covered those "most of the time" cases and thereby really differentiated yourself from the herd. I think that a slight pause and a calming deep breath would have served your employment search better in this case. The person asking an applicant silly questions may actually be attempting to find wheat amongst the chaff.

That was to decide if you should be paid the 'developer' rate or the 'senior developer' rate (and be handed tasks accordingly too)...
