Probably the ones that read the spec and delivered what was required. If you're going to gloss over something trivial, what does that say about your attention to detail?
- erichurkman 9y agoAlternatively, it's someone that wrote a solution, re-validated it against the spec, realized it was not fully correct, and was able to correct it within the deadline given. Hiring isn't yet a science.
- gowld 9y agoOrn someone who wrote a massively over engineered spaghetti mess instead of wrapping a block of code in a loop control.
- hinkley 9y agoSilver lining: people make mistakes. Especially under stress. You don’t want to work with a group that thinks we are machines.
