Three questions that separate php developer intern candidates

These are written so an HR generalist can ask them without domain expertise. You do not need to evaluate the technical answer — listen for whether the candidate reasons from something they actually did, or from something they read.

1
Show me a site you built. How do you stop a user from submitting something malicious?
2
What does Eloquent do behind the scenes, and when does it get slow?
3
How would you take over a codebase with no documentation?
