Interview Questions :: Correct questions to ask ?

Hi,
I just got off another Interview that I took & was disappointed once again.
We are looking for mid-level Programmers who can write good code ( which would initiate good debates ) as well as "think" on thier own ( not just patch freely avaliable code from Google & dish out average solutions ).
I was initailly impressed with a Candidate's Profile, but when I interviewed the Candidate on the "nuts & bolts" of the stuff in the Profile, I came to understand that the person could code, but not analyze :( ( a subjective viewpoint ).
Here are a few questions that I posed :-
1. Can you run two JVMs off the same JDK ?
2. If yes ( to Question #1 ), how would you call a class in JVM1 in JVM2.
3. Why does the JDBC Specification have so many Interfaces & just a couple of Concrete classes ?
4. Can you develop an RDBMS using only Java / J2EE ?
5. Can you access www.Google.com in a simple POJO running in a standalone JVM ?
Well, the answers to all these Questions are usually a blunt "No" or "I don't know".
I find it amazing that many programmers, who spend 2-3 yrs coding in Java do not reflect on some of the bare fundamentals.
I request the opinion of the people who participate in this Forum - am I aksing the wrong questions or am I talking to the wrong people in the Interviews?
I apologize if this is not the best place to ask the question, but I am trying to reach out to a large number of Java Enthusiasts like myself.
Thanks,
Sandeep

Hi,
Thanks for your replies - yes, I do agree from your views that I need to rephrase ( Prehaps, "rehash" ;) ) Questions #1 & #2.
>> I took this to mean "Can you start two different JVM's using the same JRE (or the JRE contained in the same JDK)?"
Yes, that would be the best way to re-phrase my question
>> Mind you; I don't like question 2. You don't call classes.
I think I would rephrase it in this manner :- " If yes to Question #1, How do you invoke a class in JVM2 from JVM 1".
A couple of my colleagues read my Post & opined that it all depended on "Exposure" vs. "Experience" - i.e:-
Exposure :- How many different "things" have you done in the past xx years ?
Experience :- How many times have you done the same "thing" in the past xx years ?
I defenitely don't subscribe to this view ( or the definitions) - I strongly believe that after some exposure to J2EE, your inner curiosity is awakened & you start asking questions to yourself - the "why" questions rather than the "how" questions. I do have my own arguments with the Architects, QAs, etc. & these talks do light many bulbs.
We are still arguing here while reading the intersting viewpoints......
Regards,
Sandeep

Dataguard Interview questions and most frequeently asked DG issues

Hi Gurus,
I am new to this forum and happy to be a part of it.
Can someone help me in posting " Dataguard Interview questions and most frequeently asked DG issues" as i am preparing for the interviews.
And also share the enhancements to DG in 11g.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not impressed by any of the questions at any of the linked sites provided so here are the one's I would expect someone to be able to answer:
1. What is the difference between Physical and Logical Data Guard in terms of how they work and how they are used in the enterprise?
2. What is the difference between vanilla Data Guard and Active and Snapshot?
3. How do you enable the Data Guard Broker process and why and when would you want to?
4. Who is Larry Carpenter and why should you care?
5. What parameters in using orapwd are critical for success?
6. What would you recommend as a value for SEND_BUF_SIZE and why?
7. Given a primary production database, and a full RMAN backup that takes 1 hour to fully restore ... how long would it take you to implement Physical Data Guard from the time you started working?
If the answer to question 7 is greater than 2 hours ... my assumption would be that you probably had never done it before and it wouldn't matter that you got the first six questions correct.

Reset Security Questions
Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
Manage My Apple ID
Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
If all else fails:
1. Go to: Apple Express Lane;
2. Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
3. Then choose iTunes Store;
4. Then choose Account Management;
5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
      Continue;
6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
      like your security/challenge questions reset;
8. Click Send/Continue.
You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
      tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
      "done", in the upper right corner
c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
      Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
      should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
      security questions.
d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
      selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
      should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
      questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends!

My old email account was disabled and I can't remember my password - how can I reset my password or move $ to a new itunes/email account? It seems I must have mis-typed my information because I can't answer the security questions correctly...

Can anybody send me the interview point of Questions on OO ABAP?.

Hello Satish
ABAP-OO is by no means different from other object-oriented languages. Thus, you can take a book like the one for the <b>Java certification exam</b>. Having read and understood this book you are well prepared for any interview question.

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

How to make a slide wait until user has answered a question correctly, even after activating a smartshape?

Background:
I have created a quiz in which the user must answer each question correctly before proceeding to the next slide. This is what I did:
Set preferences to Settings > Required > Answer All - The user must answer every question to continue
Set the number of attempts on the question level to Infinite
Made the Next button invisible and disabled the playbar
This way, the user can only proceed to the next question slide with the Submit process – and, since attempts are infinite, that means only after successfully answering the question.
Current goal:
I want the user to be able to click on a prompt for a hint. To set this up, I did the following:
Created a smartshape labeled “click_for_hint” displaying text that says, “Click here for a hint”
Created a smartshape labeled “hint” displaying text hint
Set “click_for_hint” to show “hint” on success
Now, when the user clicks on the text that says, “Click here for a hint,” the hint pops up. So, that works – awesome! However, once the hint is activated, I would like for the user to be able to continue infinite attempts until successfully answering the question… and only then, after answering correctly, proceed to the next slide.
The problem:
If the user has submitted one or more incorrect answers and then activates the hint, the slide no longer waits until the user has answered the question correctly. Instead, it automatically resumes playing, proceeding to the next slide. I tried setting the smartshape “hint” to pause on success, but that did not work.
Is there a way to make the slide wait until the question is answered correctly before proceeding to the next slide, even after the hint has been activated?

Are you aware of the fact that your Required setting can cause problems, blocking the user? It is also totally unnecessary, because you have infinite attempts on question level, and did hide the Next button (hope you don't need Review, otherwise I would recommend not to hide that button but to drag it under the Clear button: Question Question Slides in Captivate - Captivate blog)
The hint problem is linked with the fact that a simple action will release the playhead. I would like to see the timeline of the slide, to compare the pausing points of the shape button and the question slide. And maybe this blog post can also clarify difference between simple/advanced: Why choose Standard over Simple action? - Captivate blog
As for shape buttons on question slides: Buttons on Question/Score Slides in Captivate 6? - Captivate blog

Where are LE-WM questions supposed to be asked?

Hi,
Where are warehouse management questions supposed to be asked? It's very difficult to identify an appropriate forum.
Thanks in advance for any help you could provide.
Best Regards,
Brett

Logistic Execution and Warehouse Management falls under SCM. There is a SAP ERP Manufacturing - Production Planning (SAP PP).
If in doubt you can always do a generic search in the forums using the acronyms or keywords and then trace that back to the forum category.

Marilyn

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or, if it's available in your country, you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

I answer the security questions correctly, but the answers are not accepted

I just got ISo8. i am trying to do the set-up routine. I answer the security questions correctly, but the answers are not accepted, so the process is stalled.
How do I get things moving?
