Whether you’re interviewing or dating, you can’t get to know
someone with generic, boring questions. Why? Generic questions warrant generic
answers and you can easily get those by reading your candidate’s resumes and
cover letters. Once you’ve asked the preliminary questions about IT
certifications and skillsets, here’s some non-generic IT/tech interview
questions (conversation starters) to gauge your candidate’s creativity,
critical thinking, and real-life experience beyond what they’ve written in
their CVs or rehearsed before your interview.
1. What is the first thing you ever built? Can you tell me why you built it?
2. If I were to ask your coworkers from your previous job to describe you, how do you think they’d describe you?
3. Now that you’ve described how co-worker would describe you, describe one of your co-workers working style.
4. Do you follow any technical websites or subscribe to any newsletters/blogs?
5. If you could design your dream job, what would your role look like?
