Synopsis

An easy-to-use guide, which provides a crash course in winning the technical job interview. It contains both concise technical information for a broad range of subjects and advice on how to perform during the interview. The guide begins with an introduction to the job search and interview process. It identifies various types of interview situations, details ways the applicant can control the process, explains how the agency screening process works and offers advice on how to prepare for the interview. The 26 chapters provide an easy way to access the latest technical literature and brush up on technical skills. In a question-and-answer format, senior level specialists cover a range of mainframe shop activities and products, providing all the information that is most relevant to the job interviewer. Each chapter introduces the subject, discusses the main functions, features and scope of the product, lists and defines terms unique to the product and provides between 70 and 100 questions and answers with explanations. The questions are ones a seasoned professional would ask and the answers are those they would expect from a well-qualified job candidate. All major mainframe shop activities are covered, including MVS, CICS, VSAM, DB2, UNIX, OS/2 Rel.2.0, SQL, Client/server networks, SAS, REXX programming and the AS/400 computer.
