Job Search

When assessing a potential employer, the Joel Test is a set of quick yes/no questions to check the technical maturity of their engineering team. 11-12 is great, 10 and under is worrying. Given that it’s 20 years old, consider the Pragmatic Engineer Test that considers both technical and organizational aspects. Again, aim for 11-12. (NB: the author of the latter also has a job board)
