June 1, 2012
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Phone call with two engineers.

Explained what the job is about, what they are looking for, and the environment.

The difficult part was that it's hard to ask some very technical questions over the phone, and hard to answer them. For example, try saying "dot space slash script name".

Some questions are just not suitable for the phone.

Questions

There are a lot of shell questions, for example: What is the difference between calling a script in the following ways?

  • script.sh
  • ./script.sh
  • . script.sh
