====== jobs interviews in IT ======

this is not actually "an article", but rather a set of interesting materials/articles found on the internet. if you're about to be interviewer in one yourself, try it: many hints, good practices and interesting observations by experienced ppl.

consider it as "must know" set for interviewer. :)

usual interview consists of 3 stages: choosing CVs/resumes of ppl you want to talk to (1), making short phone-screen to check if they have at least basic knowledge and understanding for software development (2) and therefore can be considered as candidates for long conversation (3). all 3 have been described in detail from practical point of view by [[http://www.joelonsoftware.com|Joel Spolsky's]] in following articles:
