Jan 19, 2020 at 0:42 comment added candied_orange @ScottHarrington True, but why ask this of HR? They're clueless when it comes to X, Y, and Z. Find out who you'd be working with and ask them what you'd really be working on. Brush up on that. Might not actually be X, Y, or Z anyway. Job postings rarely tell you what reality is like. Has happened to me.
Nov 30, 2014 at 3:33 comment added Scott Harrington Thats ridiculous - I'm not sure which world you live in but we are not robots. Remember you are talking to HR people not developers. There is nothing wrong with clarifying. Put yourself in the position of being in HR and sifting through people all day. They value when others value the process and take it seriously.
