Reliability Manager Interview Questions

73 reliability manager interview questions shared by candidates

1. Complexity... are you kidding me? Is this a college grad course? Most questions will be based around data structure and algorithms; even though this have nothing to do with day to day job (I asked what a detailed typical day was during process) 2. DRBD and HA/heartbeat linux; interviewer was way outside of his depth and didn't fully understand clustering. Refrained from correcting him when he started down wrong path with questions. 3. write a script on the fly; type of questions. Again; nothing to do with actual operations. make a script do this to a string of words make a script do this to groups and users accounts on linux system etc... On a live google hangout; no vim, no emacs... cannot use your function library you've built over the years; exactly how NO ONE programs anymore. 4. Not one troubleshooting question 5. Not a single Past action review question.
