    <ul>
      <li> What is your dress code?</li>
      <li>What are your hours and break policies?</li>
      <li>Is there a probationary period with this job?</li>
      <li> What is your policy on refactoring?</li>
      <li> Do developers ever need to make changes directly on the
	production machines? 
      </li>
      <li> Where are your business rules? Are they lost in a gaggle of
	if-thens? Are they documented and tested? Have they been discussed
	and developed via interplay between business and technology?
      </li>
      <li> Business actions or database actions? Are you directly using DBI in
	your application? Is there any direct evidence of the storage
	technology at work in your application code?
      </li>
      <li> Where is your SQL cataloged? Do you use stored procedures and/or a
	module like Class::Phrasebook::SQL, SQL::Catalog, DBIx::SQLEngine, or
	Data::Phrasebook::SQL? 
      </li>
      <li> 
	Is there any issue with me running xemacs everywhere I am
	expected to develop?
      </li>
      <li> What database are you using? What motivated that decision? Are you
	happy with your decision? 
      </li>
      <li> How do you separate presentation control from business logic? For
	example, if your presentation is controlled by Template Toolkit,
	how does it source your business rules? Please don't tell me your
	business logic is enmeshed with your presentation control.
      </li>
      <li> When I am supposed to fix a bug, do you want me to strengthen the
	code as a whole by refactoring or do you want 100-million bandaids
	and if-thens patched right over the problem?

	Where I work now, the answer is the latter.
      <li> Is X-Windows available on the development boxes?
      <li> Does your DBA (I'm assuming you have one) ensure that the databases
	in QA and development are refreshed regularly and completely?
      <li> Do I have my personal web server for development work or is everyone
	in the dev team using the same front end? Do I have my own database
	image? 
      <li> What version control system do you use? 
      <li> How frequently are changes from development released to production?
	What is the flow of such changes?

      <li> Does one change in the dev code for QA mean they test only the
	parts of the UI they think it affects? Or do they re-test the entire
	framework? 
      <li> When a bug is submitted are the submitters aware of information
	required with each bug? Ie, if it is a UI bug, are they required to
	give a precise and complete series of navigation steps along with
	screenshots? 
      <li> How does your web application handle authorization and
	authentication? 
      <li> What do you use for application configuration?
      <li> What is your policy on CPAN usage?
      <li> Do we have our own CPAN archive?
      <li> How often do you update the version of Perl?
      <li> What books do the other members of this team read regarding Perl?
	Which mailing lists/newsgroups will I see posts from them on?
