Interviews - No Sentiments Please

Last Thursday(27-Dec-07) , I happen to take Technical Interview (Dotnet & SQL Server) for 4+ experience lady candidate . She didn't answer most of the basic questions in dotnet and she answered few questions in sql server. Our questions were very basic. We have decided to reject right way.

After the interview, I was asking why she was looking for change she told her husband has expired last month and after that question she was about burst into Tears and she manged to control. Myself & another person were also dumb struck after her response.

But no places for sentiments in IT, you have perform to get through. One thing I appreciate about that the person is her courage after the huge set back in personal life. I pray god to give strength and determination for that person.
