One thing that I have emphasised on this blog is the fact that our staff really get involved in interviewing. This means that candidates can have really cool technical conversations with exceptionally smart people. That’s all well and good but what else can a candidate get from an interview with a technical person?
The answer is… the opportunity to impress the next interviewer.
Huh? Doesn’t make sense? Well, actually, it does!
When you speak with our guys, they ask you questions about technologies that are really important to our company. So, when you speak with a Lab49 technologist who asks you a question about say, Garbage Collection for .NET and you don’t know the answer, say so. Maybe, you can work out the answer together (our interviewers are so cool that they will be happy to do this with you) or maybe, you are both on a tight time schedule and don’t have the opportunity to go through GC there and then. You know what you should do?
READ UP ON IT!
But, hey, you may say, I’ve already been asked about GC, so your other interviewers won’t ask me about that. Wrong! Whilst you may not be asked a question specifically about GC, you may be asked a question where your knowledge of GC helps you to come across as a really solid techie. Indeed, imagine how pleased your interviewer will be to hear those sacred words,
“I didn’t know the answer to the question that X asked me so I spent some time learning more about it.”
Those are just the kind of things that Lab49 wants to hear of it’s techies! It shows that you are passionate about technology and that you don’t see knowledge as something that is finite.
Our tag-line is “Innovation On Demand”. In order for that to ring true, we want passionate technologists who want to find out more and then go ahead and do so. We want you to come along and work with Lab49 to make our company even better. Are you up for the challenge?
Have a good Monday.
