Got a side question.. how do I tell my junior developer who's still junior that he's not ready for being promoted. He feels he is because he understands more of the code base now, he often makes a lot of mistakes and is ready to point out the mistakes of others. He also does not get off his desk to communicate or question requirements.


Find or create a skills matrix for developer seniority. There are a few floating around out there if you Google.


Along the same lines, decide what the bar will be for promotion, tell them where they're lacking, and when they reach that bar, promote them.


Thanks
