Interview questions that may help

So I have had a little trouble in the past finding the right person when it comes to thinking at scale and considering the breadth of a problem. Also it is difficult to determine maturity of thinking for me.

Beside the obvious what, how and did you design your previous project or how would you build a search engine type questions. Explain how you would plan a <insert project here> here are a growing list of questions that I feel help me:

  • Have you ever had to compromise you design if so why? 
  • What is design thinking and how can it help?
  • Drill into the minor details of a solution the person who was in the trenches so to speak will be well acquainted with the details.
  • Ask it how difficult decisions where to make
  • (Situational awareness questions something like) How would you handle it if your team resisted a new idea you introduced?

I look out for honest heartfelt answers without jargon.

With the proliferation of tools these days hiring for a technology is needless it is really just a matter of hiring smart motivate people.
