UPDATED NOTES POST INTERVIEWS:• The developers they've interviewed are not senior enough. No one has stood out thus far. They should be able to work on multiple modules easily. o Pain points are that ppl are getting stuck in one module, it's taking them too long to get up to speed. • Not looking for a Task Taker. They need to be able to effectively & efficiently solve problems in the SNOW AutoNow environment.• Developer needs to be a counterpart to the Integration Lead, but on the Dev side, so very Senior. o It's not so much about years of experience, but rather, what have they done with their years of experience? • The interviews are extremely technical. Given a sample code that they need to decipher. o HAMPro and Asset Management experience are absolute musts.  Do they understand the workflows of an asset?• Have they actually DONE implementations? or just modules around implementations? We should be asking about what their involvement was in implementations.• SOFT SKILLS are also going to be huge. o Should be leading the Development team. o Do they have accountability, integrity  Tammy asks "what was a mistake that you made and how did you fix it?" and if they don't own up to ever making a mistake, that's a red flag for her.
