1. Reliability
As a QA professional, you are the last and most important barrier between the evil, destructive bugs and the users. It might be disguised under some else’s title, but it is your thumb, pointing up or down that says if a version is getting released or not.
Stressful? Sure it is!.
Now think about the person that is interviewing for this position.
What do you think will be the absolute deal breaker? The slightest whiff, the fastest flicker, the faintest hum in the vibe if reliability might take you off the list.
I will never hire someone that I don’t trust, on both measurable and downright intuitive levels, for a position that places my bacon on the line.
So what does it means for you?
First make sure your CV are not misleading, hyped, or down right selling something you cannot deliver at a moment’s notice. Same goes to the interview itself: it is perfectly well to describe yourself in a highly favorable manner, but never say you know something when you do not. You can never know, the next questions might be very specific regarding your this very “something”.
