Interviewing Techniques

My work group has just been given approval to hire four new programmers, and now all of us have to interview people, both on the phone and in person. I hate interviewing people. I never know what to ask. I’ve also noticed that people tend to be careless with the truth when writing their resumes. We’re considering a programming test for our next round of interviewees, because we realized that some previous candidates clearly couldn’t program their way out of a paper bag. There have to be tricks to speeding up hiring without compromising whom we hire.
