Yup, and maybe the person might not even know CF but want to learn. That means I'd ask about their last big project: what was it, what was their part, how did they approach the problem, what was the result, why did they do it that way, et al. I'd also ask why they're applying for a CF job and/or this specific job. You could also tell them, generally, what you're working on and ask them how they'd approach the daily tasks you're doing now. When the person tells you something or an approach you hadn't thought of, that's your candidate. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:258419 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
