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.

ADF: LOV Description instead of code

I keep on forgetting how to do this so this is a note to self in terms I understand (ie pictures): Add the related entiy object to yours (in the example we are adding RegionEO(list of values) to CountryEO) Now add the RegionName field from the EO and a transient attribute (I named mine RegionNameLOV) Make the transient attribute updateable and base it on the expression RegionName (the description you wish to display) Add a list of values to RegionNameLOV and map BOTH key to parent fk (region id here) AND RegionName to your transient coulmn (RegionNameLOV).  Map the transient as an Input text with List of Values. Then just drag the lov item onto the page (RegionNameLOV)

java.lang.IllegalStateException: ADF_FACES-60003:Component with ID not registered for Active Data

This was hard to fix: if anyone wants the code just ask. Or if you have a better solution please post comment. Once excel export has been clicked if we navigate around using ppr to refresh the region we get this error. I was forced to create an export handler tag wich forces the export to happen in a new window. Because this page is getting some hits here is some of the code (also use this method for pdf export): Button with new listener: (xmlns:new="http://za.co.company/adf/faces/common/my" in your jsp:root) <af:commandToolbarButton text="Export" id="ctb1" immediate="true" partialSubmit="true" icon="images/excel.jpg"> <new:myExportCollectionActionListener exportedId="audTab" type="excelHTML" filename="audit.xls" title="Audit"/> </af:commandToolbarButton> TAG: import oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.export.ExportCollectionActionListener; import oracle.adfin...
