When I've been involved in hiring, neither of these mattered as much as if the person could show their knowledge of the relevant subjects we were hiring for in the application/resume/letter & then in the interview.
- twothamendment 10y agoI always like to ask people what side projects they work on, what new tech they'd like to play with if they had time. Even if they dream of starting some project, but never do, that is a good sign for me. I've had some people answer that with blank stares. All I can think is they don't love to create, code or solve problems. Every good dev I've worked with has a project or at least talks about something they'd like to build, fix or improve. If a person loves to code and learn and will fit with a team - good enough for me.
