Devops Manager Interview Questions

136 devops manager interview questions shared by candidates

I must say that there was a lot of confusion in terms of the position offered - either architect, or manager. Nobody knew for sure. Also, the description was somewhat vague, only referencing the knowledge requirements as "API Management, Relational and Non-relation DBs, Event Streaming, deployment and code management tools). I was surprised that in the beginning of the discussion. I asked what were the day to day activities - the answer was pointing to the Azure as a cloud solution, but then, it hit me. All the questions were pretty much related to Nessus, Nexus, OpenShift, Jenkins and a bit of K8s here and there. Nothing related to Azure. No design questions, no solution referencing the technicalities of the job. Also, no management-related questions either. Everything is so vague in terms of knowledge offered from their side. Also, to wrap the experience nicely, the recruiter acted like s*it, once again ghosting when being asked for feedback.

The "head of DevOps" had no idea of how to frame a technical question. What he asked me was, "how do you go to the app website". Which left me flabbergasted. What he really meant to ask me was to describe the process of exposing the eks cluster workload, which houses my application, from the private ip domain, to the public routable domain (via NAT etc.). Perhaps he also wanted to know how the routing and load balancing works. But who knows, cause he couldn't even communicate proper English.
