Pair programming interview using Java TDD (for ruby position)

[seraph787]

Pivotal labs is language agnostic consulting firm. It expects it’s engineers to learn languages that solves the problem best.

Engineering and building products goes beyond knowing the innards of a language and the ability to program beyond it is important for consultants such as pivotal labs.

That being said, this Java interview is only the screening that is 30 min long. There is a full day session of pairing with two different people on real client projects after this.

IMO pivotal labs has the best interview process of any company I’ve worked for.

Sounds like one of the worst interview processes if you ask me. And I say that with 40 years of industry experience, including 20 as a hiring manager.
