My beef with this in interviewing is that a huge chunk of modern programming work is developing UIs - and user interface theory and skills are treated like some softball thing. You ask UI-related questions to interviewers and half the time you get some shrug "oh we use whatever", etc.
- joshuamorton 8y agoThis depends highly on the domain. I'm the only person on my team with any level of frontend work in the past ~2 years. And when I did, I was able to consult with UX experts and designers. I can't say that theory is more universal than frontend, though anecdotally, for me, it is. But ui isn't universal.
