Who the FUCK uses Oracle Cloud?!!!?? Didnt know this shit even existed. What you're so cool and special as shit that its not enough for you to use AWS AZURE AND GCP? YOU MUST USE ORACLE CLOUD TOO? GET FUCKED. NOW I HAVE TO WASTE TIME STUDYING ORACLE CLOUD SO I CAN APPLY FOR THIS SR DEVOPS ROLE

I think I know where your problem is with interviewers.

If you go in with something you learned in a week interviewers can tell and think you are just another BSer.

Maybe pick a few things to focus on and then go in an interview saying you don't know X and X but you have lots of experience with this similarly designed Y.

Again, this is prepandemic perspective. I don't claim to know what it's currently like

OCI has massive customers.

You can't control what cloud/on prem setup you get to work with, and you can't learn them all. So just learn how they work generally, the core concepts.

DNS, load balancers, VPNs, virtual networking, compute, observability, object storage, multi tenancy setups.

Then dive into one really deep. That will get you 80% of the way there on any cloud and 99% of the way there on your cloud of choice.

@iceb how can i say that if the thing i am not familiar with is literally written in the "requirements" section? Not even the "bonus" or "nice to have" section. I would get immediately ignored. Thats why i have to bullshit and lie within limits. I say i know that bullshit with 3 yrs of experience and then in the meanteam quickly go over a 3 hour crash course to learn at least the fundamentals and concepts about it so i can know what the fuck im saying in the interview

They have a free service so I use it to host Minecraft servers.

Also several essential parts of my infrastructure due to scope creep.

@iceb @lungdart FUCK, now the dumbass recruiter scheduled the first round of interview without my permission which is a quiz that i have to solve within 90 minutes and i need to take this quiz within 48 hours! No fucking sleep for me in the next 2 days. My mental state will become even more beyond FUCKED and FRIED NOW

@horus will take note thanks for advice

@theKarlisK @horus @gollark @lungdart

This is the quiz i have to take in less than 48 hours. If i pass this then the 60 minute technical interview starts

Any tips to pass this?

@b2plane if you don't know those technologies, and it's unproctored, cheat.

if you feel that strongly about the technology they're using - maybe you shouldn't apply for the job after all?

@lungdart i will have to be on the webcam with them so i cant get additional support or cheat

@tosensei i didnt ask to apply for that job, the recruiter asked me. I so i just went along with their bullshit and see what happens. Besides i have to strengthen my skills in these devops technologies too

@horus this quiz is part 1 of the interview. if i pass the quiz only then we move to part 2 of interview where they ask me technical questions for 60 minutes in devops and my past experience

@horus yes but any tips what i should pay more attention to regarding ci/cd kubernetes terraform and elasticsearch?
