Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Barclays (Praga) en oct 2024
Entrevista
I interviewed for a role in the Prague office. The interviewing process went very smooth and was completed in about two weeks max. Everyone involved was very professional and overall it was a very positive experience!
Unfortunately, I had to decline the offer as the total compensation wouldn't be as much of an improvement for me as I was hoping for.
Linux questions involving commands as ssh, ssh-copy-id, top, uptime, what is pid, free, id/whoami. What kind of files is in /var/log? How to tell which application is listening on a specific port?
Some basic questions about SQL. How would I get a number of records in a table? What are indices for and why not to put them on all of the columns? Does indices take up any space in the database? How would I find out about slow queries?
Questions about telemetry/logging/observability/monitoring for which I didn't have many answers as I have only weak working knowledge of tools used in this area.
Second round was behavioral composed of "tell me about the time..." style questions.
- What initiatives have I lead from the start to an end?
- Persuading someone.
- I know I’m not going to meet the deadline. What do I do?
