And ofcourse we all try to find a answer that is suitable for this
specific problem and its good that loads of people have different
takes on it.

Hi Zeh,
There's just so much you had to know about an employee on Flash
development, that just an interview doesn't cut it; seeing how the
person works once he/she settles down is a must. You can't have a
guy dragging the office around just because he knew the right
answers at one specific time.
I totally agree, good point.
So no, it does not sound sad to me, sorry if I sounded harsh or
anything (that wasn't my intention).
No problem :) Discussions can get heated sometimes. Thats normal on
lists like this ;)

So where it all comes down to is that everybody has its own
personal preferences of doing.
A personal set of things to do and how to spot a good coder or an
opinion on what makes a good flash developer, whether this is by
showing code, letting them do some questions, shoing some work or
all of the above.
If somebody steps into our office and understands the concept of
programming, knows its syntax but is not that good in AS coding,
i'll give him / her a shot, treat that person as a junior and see
what they do in their trial period(mostly it is 1 or 2 months,
depending what country you are in). Depending on the questions
they ask you kindof know what they are like.
If they've proven them selfs usefull and are willing to learn,
i'll invest in that person with a contract.
Does that still sound sad to you Zeh?
