the inverviewer was a technical hiring manager. Unfortunately, I was thinking the first phone interview should be a HR guy. Therefore, I am a little surprised when the guy started to throw technical questions on me.
The technical questions are not hard. It involves Selenium, Hudson, Test Framework, Interface and Localization.
