Rep Power: 3  | Ok, seriously, I would ask questions like: - Give me a quick synopsis of what a relational database is.
- What operating system(s) are you comfortable working on?
- If you had to restore from a backup, what would your process be?
- You get an email from Jane....she can't print, she says....what do you do?
- I want coffee....extra strong coffee...what do you do? [LOL...come on, I'm kidding!!!]
These aren't really technical or technology related, but important in seeing the "type" of person they are:- What do you envision your first week here to be like? (you can get some insight into how a person works, how they think, what "type" of person they are)
- What would you want to accomplish in your first 6 months?
- Have you worked with fund raising systems before? If so, which one(s)?
- In what capacity? {you may be surprised how many people may apply for your job that never really "used" a system, didn't really understand it, but just clicked when someone told them to!!}
So, those are my questions....
