This one is important! Some people need support, maybe even micro-managing,
until they get up to speed, others don't and would rather jump in neck deep.
Always remember that just because you might prefer one method it doesn't mean
the perspective employee does, and it's important to ask up front.

Subject: [EDI-L] RE: Tech Interview Questions
Hi --
Another area of focus is the environment. If SAP, ask questions on IDOC
structure, EDPAR, etc.
If Oracle, ask about the EC Gateway & how it works. You might also
want to ask questions regarding the amount of customization they did,
why & how long did it take. ( I see a lot of re-inventing of the wheel
because people do not understand the basic functionality of the
products, and problems due to customization.) What was their fastest
implementation? If in order management, what % of lines successfully
booked? or some other stat to see if they are monitering the success of
the project. If they need UNIX or SQL experience, you might ask a
question about that. Also question if they have ever had a difficult
customer (internal or external) and how they handled it. How active
are they with EC commerce organizations? Training? Certifications?
Ongoing community courses? Have they been a speaker or written on the
topic? What project were they most proud of? What would they have
done differently in hindsight? What is their communication method?
Status reports? etc. Education? Technical courses? Do they have any
business background? Accounting? Project Management? Do they feel
they will need a lot of support to get up to speed? or minimal
supervision? Are there any skills they don't have for the project that
will require additional resources?
I agree with some of the others that some questions can be too technical
although it doesn't hurt to ask a few. And,
remember, some are specific to industries.
Good luck. Interviewing & finding good people is the most difficult
skill of all. Naturally, follow up with the references. Also be sure
that you ask regarding the skill level. Do they need a lot of
supervision to get something done? Are they quick? or slow? Easy to
manage or difficult?
