A test task for a job interview - mid to senior level
by ALInux from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4XG96)
Hi
We are in the hiring process for a mid-level to senior level Linux guru. We want to give the candidates a Linux task that should not be too easy and not too difficult. It should be a job that can be completed in 2-3 hours for a mid-level Guru. The task has to demonstrate R&D skills "allowed to use the Internet, but task should not a one liner solution somewhere online" and the skill level of the candidate.
I have thought about some complex Iptables combo with mangle, or some complex apache configuration. Some complex REGEX. Something not too mainstream.
Can you guys please give me some examples/hints/pointers/input :)?
Thanks
