An interview experience
-
So I met this guy during an interview today who called himself a DOT-NET developer He kept on arguing that following code is called "boxing" string s = "3"; int i = (int)s; I mean, forget boxing .. this code doesnt even compile. I contemplated showing him on a quick online browser but did not have such resources in hand ... He had a bunch of such questions (all of them equally unjustifiable) ... after which I was thankfully rejected ... Gawd I just dont understand how such people get into mainstream interviewing in super large MNCs.

Is UnBoxing beating yourself up in a ring? Or competitive healthcare?

That is boxing. Doesn't it make you feel punch the guy?

Because non-techies can't tell the good ones from the posers. That problem is not particular to CompTech, but seems to be especially prominent here.

Yeah ... I wanted to start the real boxing (the sports one)

"Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of ticky-tacky"... Does the C# compiler support a Ticky-tack directive? ;P
Why can't I be applicable like John? - Me, April 2011
