At Mu we’re looking to hire a VP of Engineering. Anyways, I figured I’d list some of my interview questions I plan to ask.
- As a manger, what kind of environment makes you the most effective? The least?
- Every manager seems to claim they have an “open door policy”. How do you get people to walk through the door?
- What do you bring to the table that can help a fast growing startup continue to execute quickly and maintain quality?
- What role do you intend to play with regards to our CTO and VP of Product Management?
- What qualities do you look for in an engineer when interviewing? What are some red flags?
- What do you expect from your engineering teams? What should they expect from you?
- What are some pet peves?
- Complete the sentance: “I manage by…”
- How do you hope to improve by working at Mu?
- What do you read for fun and profit?
- Any questions for me?
