I just read this nice blog post that contains a few tips on how to interview a Laravel developer.

When hiring someone at Spatie, I usually tend to get a feel if a candidate is passionate about our field of work.

I ask questions like:

• Who are the people you feel you can learn from?
• What blogs are you reading?
• What new thing are you enthousiastic about?
• What are the things you would change?

In most cases, these questions spark a nice conversation that covers the technical bits too.

You probably notice that this post is a lot shorter than usual. I'm experimenting with a new short format to share some quick thoughts.
