I got my first job at a consulting company, I was interviewed by a commercial who understood nothing about programming, he only cared that I had a master degree, so no technical question at all, but he did tell me I had to learn to dress better. In retrospect I think I should not have accepted a job at a company that sorts out candidates this way :)

That could be even crazier to work on a company like that afterward.. πŸ˜‰ No one to ask anything coding related and no understanding of the development process for those who work there πŸ˜‰

What do you mean you have coding questions? You studied programming already, right?

Sure thing you can code on your own and purely independently πŸ˜‰ tho it's always nice to have a team around in case you come across a problem that is not your direct expertise πŸ˜‰ sometimes it's just easier to ask πŸ˜‰
