I think a good mid-level C# developer would have a solid command of most of the canned classes and collections. I personally would ask them to hand write code or psuedo-code for loading a CSV file and run some basic analysis on it such as summing and averaging values from two or three of the columns. If they properly use the System.IO, System.Collections, and possibly System.Data classes and proper flow control, they are ready for a more technical interview. I would follow up with questions on when to use interfaces, what the null coalescing and null conditional operators are used for, and explain lambda expressions just to gauge if they have been keeping up with how the language has evolved.

Ugh. All those questions a mid-level developer should be able to answer, and you should have been able to glean from their resume / github / LinkedIn that they are capable of answering those questions.
Even for mid-level developers, I would stick with questions that are more open ended and tell you about their thinking process.

Those are good questions, but I'd also ask some questions pertaining to the other tiers, such as database and UI.

Since most of the questions are so vague that they need 1,000-word answers, they're probably hoping to publish a book with material stolen from interview answers.

Whatever questions you decide on, encode them with ROT13.

Long while ago (7+ years ago ) I was at the receiving end of interview questions. All technical questions being fired at me by 4 people from the company and one of them completely threw me off when all of a sudden one of them asked me "design a zoo". Now I am in a zone to answer technical questions like language syntax and why one thing over other etc and bam..Till date I remember that interview because it was so odd. So you can add that to your list or not !

I got laser eye surgery a month ago, but I still can't shoot lasers out of my eyes.
Am I doing it wrong, or should I be asking for a refund?
What I have tried:
Shooting laser beams out of my eyes.

We're not here to do your homework. You won't learn anything by getting other people to write your code for you and it's unfair on your classmates.
Try attaching a debugger to your eyeballs and step through the code (assuming that you've actually bothered to write some) a line at a time. It's most likely an incorrect binding path for what it's worth.
Slogans aren't solutions.

Ah, easy mistake to make. You need administrative access for that. Try "sudo".

Try drinking some Rhodamine 6G. If that doesn't work, try injecting it into your eyes.

I've built a few lasers, some 'from scratch' - and I'll give you one bit of helpful essential advice: Sheep Are Not The Answer!

The lasers are still installing patches. Have them downgrade the OS to W7.

You obviously didn't use the search function, to see if our question has already been answered.

For one I hate that they sell applications no-one wrote, and then push you to complete it yesterday...

Whenever you come in contact with them, directly or indirectly, just put your fingers into your ears and sing a little. Don't listen to any of their fantasies and just ignore them. Double experience points if you resist the urge to listen when they actually turn up and try to explain to us how to do our jobs.
Ignoring them is not taken as rude, as they have only a loose grasp of reality anyway.
