Where should I work?
Sunday, March 11, 2007

Interestingly, the use of a technical test in interviews can
actually work both ways. In my recent hunt for a new job I
automatically turned down any vacancy where I was *not* given a
technical test. My reasoning behind that is that I know *I* can
program, but do I want to work with *other* programmers who haven't
been tested?



The harder the test I was given, the more excited I was about the vacancy.



If anyone out there is looking for a new job I urge you to bear that in mind.

I found this in the user comment on coding horror. Just something to take note off. Lately a lot of ppl have been asking me where should they look to work. I found this as good advice. I don't know who the author James is... as there was no link... the name is included here just so that one day I might find out.

Google cacheing...

Google caches some webpages for quick access, but some webmasters do
not like that. The procedure is quite simple. All you have to do is
write a line of code between your HEAD tags.

META NAME=”ROBOTS” CONTENT=”NOARCHIVE” - should be enough to stop
all robots from caching and archiving the page where the code is
embedded.
