Java Developer Interview Questions

Veru simple question

Never heard anyone ask that question before, its a dangerous zone because you can always say its age descrimination if you do not get the job. Doesn't really matter when you're 30, but if you're 55 and someone asks you that, one can get pretty offended.

As a team member I would try to understand his concerns by listening to them very patiently. This is very important as the person would feel a little more relaxed when one shows interest in his concerns.

But having said that, if he is not in a mood to listen to suggestions and keeping the deliveries and other team members concerns in mind, it would have to be escalated in a soft way to the manager.

Interviewer was looking for a knowledge of binary search techniques.
