The interview went really well!
-
Spent an hour and half talking shop, covering Ruby, C#, etc., the fellow sounds like he's really grounded and experienced in balancing things like testing, idiomatic syntaxes, OOD, etc. I sounds like I would really enjoy working with him and his team. I'll let you all know if/when I get the actual offer! Marc

That sounds great ! Sorry if I draped any cobwebs of paranoia over your mental furniture with my suspicious take on the pre-interview conversation ! Wish I could hear a tape-recording of that interview: bet I would learn something. cheers, Bill
«I'm asked why doesn't C# implement feature X all the time. The answer's always the same: because no one ever designed, specified, implemented, tested, documented, shipped that feature. All six of those things are necessary to make a feature happen. They all cost huge amounts of time, effort and money.» Eric Lippert, Microsoft, 2009

It was good, because it clued me in to ask questions like "do you have some best practice guidelines on using CSS?" and similar stuff, which helped position in the right way, I think. Besides, I am genuinely interested in people's best practices.

Nah, it was basically two techy guys enjoying similar views and life experiences for an hour and half. Marc

But what did "wants to make sure that your strategies align more with Ruby best practices as opposed to a more traditionally .NET approach." mean?
Well, the message got lost in the translation between him and the recruiter (a non-tech person.) The original message was basically "what best practices have you developed working with RoR?" A much better question. :) Marc
