软件工程师求职者在技术访谈中没有成功。尽管候选人能够回答技术问题，但候选人认为访调员评估与实践中使用的标准相关的是不匹配的。期望的不匹配可能会给候选人带来工作机会。为了确定访调员的价值，我们对大学的软件工程师候选人进行了模拟技术访谈，并从访调员那里收集了评估。我们分析了9家软件公司的70次访谈评估。我们使用扎根的理论方法比较了对标准的访调员的解释，包括：进行问题解决演练，将以前的经验应用于解决问题以及在编写代码之外进行对话的能力。从这些发现中，我们对候选人期望在跨公司的技术访谈中对候选人进行评估的含义，有时可能会有很大差异。
Software engineer job candidates are not succeeding at technical interviews. Although candidates are able to answer technical questions, there is a mismatch of what candidates think interviewers assess versus what criteria is used in practice. This mismatch in expectations can cost candidates a job opportunity. To determine what criteria interviewers value, we conducted mock technical interviews with software engineer candidates at a university and collected evaluations from interviewers. We analyzed 70 interview evaluations from 9 software companies. Using a grounded theory approach, we compared interviewer interpretations of criteria including: performing a problem solving walkthrough, applying previous experience to problem solving, and the ability to engaging in conversation beyond writing code. From these findings, we provide implications on what candidates can expect to be evaluated on during technical interviews across companies, which can sometimes vary significantly.
