- Are you an early adopter and a fast adapter ?* Do you ever find interesting things around and just start playing with them? Can you always think about how to integrate the knew knowledge with what you already know or with a project you know?
- Are you inquisitive? Are you curious about how things work?
- Are you a critical thinker? Do you take things as given or you challenge them, passing them through your own reason and/or fingers?
- Are you realistic? Do you try to understand things in depth so that you have a better idea about their difficulty or their estimated development time? Or you are usually optimistic and disappointed?
- Are you a jack of all trades (and master of some of them)? Do you try hard to be acquainted to more than what your work requires – new technologies, new areas, new challenges.
(From The Pragmatic Programmer, from journeyman to master)
My bonus:
- Do you contribute to your field? (Some ideas: blogs, open source projects, Stack Overflow etc.)
* The most interesting part of my current job’s interview was the new knowledge test when I was supposed to use some data and create a graph using a language I had never heard about.
