Watch Sr. Automation Engineer Angie Jones as she goes over technical interview questions for automation engineering positions - and answers them step-by-step. .

Test Automation Engineers are in high demand, but that doesn’t mean companies are willing to lower the bar in hiring for these roles.

Unfortunately for us, this means that the interview process for automation engineers has become a lot more difficult. Gone are the days where you’re asked about identifiers for web elements, or to write a simple login script using the Selenium WebDriver API. Today’s technical interview for an automation engineer is on par with that of a software developer.

Angie Jones, Senior Software Engineer in Test at Twitter, has been on both sides of the table as an interviewer and interviewee.
Watch Angie as she goes over sample technical interview problems, and provides step-by-step guidance on how to solve them.
