I'm looking to hire one or more C# .NET programmers on a 1099/contract basis. Anyone have any suggestions as to the best ways to find the right people? What I don't want is an offshore firm, I don't want the .NET newbie who picked up a few skills during the past six months, I don't want the guy with the 20-year resume who knows everything from COBOL to .NET but none of it very well--I need a true .NET rock star who can get projects done fast and well and who knows how to make things happen and I've had a nightmare of a time trying to find this kind of developer.

That's kind of like me asking you how I can learn to make more free throws in basketball and you saying "By throwing the ball through the hoop more often."

Anybody have a helpful answer?

How much do you know about .net yourself? I'd start by asking the person questions like Explain garbage collection, what does strong typing mean, what's tightly or loosely coupled, and what does it mean for strings to be immutable in .net? But that sort of depends on you knowing the answers. I'd focus more on knowledge of the framework than C#.

Ask about which rad ( rapid application development ) tools make sense to use, and which don't.

Wow.. youd be a tough interview.

Why would you not try to see on sites that posted resumes. I think this can help you to find a good and experienced programmers.

Or alternatively just find chancers who say they are "good and experienced"
