It Specialist Interview Questions
In an IT specialist interview, employers ask questions to determine your technical training, work experience and communication skills. Expect the interviewer to ask technical questions that assess your coding, networking and database management skills. Be prepared to discuss previous work projects as well as your problem-solving and time-management strategies.
Top IT Specialist Interview Questions & How to Answer
Here are three IT specialist interview questions and tips on how to answer them:
Question No. 1: Which software packages have you used on the job?
How to answer: This question allows you to share your work experience with different software products. Make sure you include the product version you used. Discuss your preferred software packages, including detailed reasons for your preferences. It is also helpful to review the software packages used by the prospective employer so that you can highlight your experience with their product.
Question No. 2: How do you deal with a project that does not go to plan?
How to answer: Your answer to this question demonstrates your ability to problem-solve and make decisions under pressure. Describe a problematic project you have worked on in the past, including the steps you took to rectify issues and the outcome of your actions. Make sure you include lessons you learned from the experience.
Question No. 3: What are the major differences between SOAP and REST?
How to answer: Interviewers use technical questions to assess your technical training, understanding of Web API services and communication skills. Make sure you include specific details of SOAP and REST in your answer. If possible, discuss circumstances in your work history that involved one or both API services.
Both the rounds of interview were conducted in structured format where the panelists ask questions related to candidate's experience. They also gave scenarios to which candidates had to respond appropriately.

If you were asked to unload a 747 full of jelly beans, what would you do?
61 Answers↳
Assuming they are loose jellybeans, and their unloading needs to be managed rather than just dumped on the tarmac ... Start by phoning the people at the other end, of the process. They managed to load an entire plane with jellybeans! Any group that can figure out how to fill a plane with jellybeans may be a big help in undoing this mess. Less

Put an ad on craigslist "Free jellybeans - won't last. Hurry!". They'll all be gone in no time. Less

I would do it. The question is not "how" you would do it.
How many man hours would it take to clean every single window in London?
21 Answers↳
Thank you for the time, this job's not for me...
↳
Based on London's population and an average time per window you could give a rough estimate. Each person has a home and a workplace (schools or other public institutions are also here). So I have 2 windows for me at home and 2 at home, maybe more.. Then I take all cars of London probably the same or more as the population have about 6 windows each So the formula would be: time_per_window * ( population * ( 2 at home + 2 at work + 6 per car)) Less

1 million card applications. $1 per application cost to do employment verification. 96% pass verification and get a card. 4% fail and do not get cards. Given average profits on cardholders in good standing, and average losses on accounts that default, find the % of denied cardholders that would have to default in order to justify the $1 per application verification cost .
8 Answers↳
Anymore info given? I think you'd either need to know the percentage of cardholders in good standing, or the percentage of cardholders in bad standing. Less

This appears to be a trick question that makes you think they want to know the break-even point. However: how can someone default on a credit card that they were "denied" and never issued? Less

I had the same case and you can ask for more info like percent in good standing etc. Less
How many unique handshakes if each person in a group of 10 give handshakes out to each and every other individual. (a) 100 (b) 50 (c) 45 (d) 20 (e) 10
6 Answers↳
true, or 9+8+7+...+2+1
↳
None of those answers are correct. The follow-up question should be are we assuming that each person is only using 1 hand? For example, if everyone is only giving handshakes left to left, or left to right or right to right or right to left? Granted left to right and right to left would be awkward. Less

45. Imagine it as a polygon of side 10. Or draw out triangle, square, pentagon, and see the pattern yourself, if you don't know the algorithm. Less
