Forum Overview :: NetHack :: I bombed a fucking phone interview today

[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"]There's three things... there's more than three things, but there's three things I do every day, 1. Backend automation: FitNesse & Java 2. Misc. testing: Unix shell scripting 3. GUI automation: Selenium to Junit I'm going to let go of the fact that I maintain the Jenkins server, created the scripts to automate deployments and do database verification. The entire interview was about the thing I have the least amount of experience in, which is #3. I kind of hate those interviews! If it were any more in-depth, I would have given the guy the byte code. As someone who has 90% of his ego tied up in being awesome of his job, 5% this site and 5% general cocksmanship, this has been a tough week where I fucked up a goddamn phone interview, and none of you are posting and I can't get laid. Christ, what a goddamn embarrassment. I couldn't articulate the "magic" of going from Selenium IDE to tiny little disparate Junit tests. I can do this shit in my sleep but nobody in my real life wants to talk about it. Girlfriends at two different times have written me notes saying that I am saying "Ummmm" too much. The first time is when I got interviewed for Get Lamp, the second today. Fuck everything. ICJ [/quote]
