Yes so the ranking is arbitrary but I know that you've made it to the top of the rabbit hole and looked down it once. Some people are at the edge of the forest

Yes so the ranking is arbitrary but I know that you've made it to the top of the rabbit hole and looked down it once. Some people are at the edge of the forest and don't even know there is a rabbit hole. That's what the question is for. > I usually just probe by asking details about the projects they've done etc. I do this too, but that tells you if the person has a matching view of their abilities with their actual skills.
