ASP.NET C# Developer interview

[Izi]

So I have to interview a C# developer next Tuesday to fill an intermediate ASP.NET Developer role. The role will include developing website using ASP.NET, C#, WebForms and MS SQL Server. Front end CSS/HTML is not important.

I have never done this before so can some kind peeps help me put some questions together? What are your personal experiences of interviews?

Obviously I will be look for the obvious understandings of OOP, good application structure, SVN use and testing etc, but should I actually give the person a small test? What else should I do?

Thanks in advance!

Great advice people, thanks.

I think I might ask them to build a very small web app. Something which should only take an hour or two, is that fair? How long have you been kept at interviews for in the past?
