This week we are hiring! We have win some new projects that are supposed to start in the next two months so we are hiring new testers.

As a outsourcing company we need to constantly show great quality and good personal development. That is why we have started offering two new job positions for software testing engineers. I was personally involved in the interviewing and I can share some of the questions that we have asked the candidates.

Software testing interview questions

1.  How would you test a pen.

You are given a regular pen and you are given the task to test it. How exactly would you test it.

2. You have a small console software product that is doing only calculation of the sum of two input values.How would you test it.

3. We have asked the standard gas station question. “How many gas stations there are in your home city”. You would be amazed how many people have failed to answer anything on this question.

Of course we asked some more questions but I can’t share more since it would not be fair to my company.

The correct answers to the questions can be founded in the Internet, but I must say that we were looking mostly how creative are the candidates and how they are thinking. We are hiring new people believing that they should be able to learn really fast and apply their current knowledge in an area that might not be very familiar to them.
