i am looking for a new job in iphone application development.For this iam looking for a questionaire on iphone.After a lot of search on google,it seems to me that there does not exists any openly available questionaire that will help iPhone Developers to have a better preparation. Still than if anybody knows about this, Please let me know about it. As it will be helpful to me and also to others who are on similar track.

Thank you.

I've interviewed developers for a few permanent positions, and for working on contracts. I've never looked for someone who can answer quiz questions, and it's usually clear in an interview the distinction between people who have revised for a test, and those who know how to write applications.

I'd say your best preparation would be to find a problem you want to solve, and solve it. When you interview for a job, you can talk about something you've really done then, not worry about whether that fact you learned about the UITableViewCell API will come up. And if they ask you a different question, you can solve it by analogy with the things you've done on your own projects.

Good luck!

This is very difficult to answer because you can never expect the questions they will ask you. Your best bet is develop your own apps and put it on App Store. Include a link to your application on your resume. Your potential employers will be able to judge you much better if you do it this way. For example, my company will only consider candidates who have proven (ie. something on AppStore) experience.

Graham Lee's answer is good, but I do think there are a few basic things that you can ask an interviewee just to establish that they know the basics.

  • Top of the list would memory management, if they dont understand how to use retain/release/autorelease you might as well stop there :)
  • I would want them to demonstrate knowledge about the GUI components
  • Knowledge about collections (not that many really)
  • Persistence options
