I wouldn't consider it bizarre if a candidate has deep knowledge about something different than what I expected when I started. I'd consider that pretty normal actually, since most people don't work on the same thing. I would

My 2c to teams attempting to write SOLID code: Please make sure that the entire team that touches the code base understands what makes it SOLID-compliant (Don't like the term compliant, but it'll have to do). SOLID is more a frame

I used to work in this field several years ago. It’s gotten way better over time but there’s room for continuing improvement. Personally I think it’s a bit of everything: There’s almost no standardization in signaling protocols. Things like

This is a bit of an oversimplification but I've had really good results by making my first question "What have you already tried? Can you remind me in a couple of hours?" I know you mentioned that, but often times asking that

Agreed! I don't think enough engineering orgs appreciate the value of a great narrative on any technical topic. Part of my duties at work require me to deal with "large" issues. While a solution to them is usually necessary a

If you plan to crowdsource information, please make it abundantly clear that the info is crowdsourced, and maybe even make it slightly harder to get! There is a lot of inaccurate information about visas. Part of the problem is that border a
