If you are going to an interview, I wouldn't suggest talking about how code works, as they will know and this will sound patronising to them. Most people aren't looking for people who can code, there are thousands, what they are usually looking for is someone who has flare, creativity and can think for themselves, but also work in a team.<br><b>References : </b><br>Me: Professional Web Designer/Developer When I’m looking for employees I always look for the small things, like organised code, tabbed in the correct places, so that at a glance you can see what goes with what e.g.
