[AccessD] (OT) Interview Questions

Kathryn

I didn't volunteer it because it's not aimed at just Access developers; I'm
trying to find someone who can do Access VBA, ADO, SQL & relation database
design but also VB, MS SQL Server dev & MS SQL Server admin. It IS a tough
test and I could only answer about half of it myself - like I said, I mostly
wanted a framework for talking through technical issues with interviewees. I
even said to them "If you don't like the questions make up your own
questions" but that just confused them *sigh*.

Oleg, if you want me to mail you the test anyway contact me offline.

Ask Roz Clarke [roz.clarke at donnslaw.co.uk] to send you her "Technical test
for developers". On Tues May 13 she said: "I've put together a wee test to
give people I'm interviewing for a position as a systems developer later in
the week. 
Not having done this before, I'd be interested in getting some input from
y'all. This is pitched at people with about 5 years experience, who will be
expected to do a lot of work in Access (but nothing very taxing), some light
(but important) SQL Server dev & admin, a fair amount of Office integration
and ideally will know enough VB to show me a thing or 2. 
It should take about half an hour (I think it's probably too long at the
moment). I'm more interested in intelligent & practical thinking than 100%
correct answers (I'll be going through the interviewees' answers with them
at length). If you'd be willing to road test it for me let me know and I'll
mail you the word doc."

I got a copy and it's way over my head, but should be of help to you.
