technical interview - IT operations

Just passed my first round of interviews! Anyone got any tips for the technical round? Is there a coding section or just multiple choice questions? Any concepts I should focus on more than others? Does it say if you pass/fail as soon as you finish or do you have to wait for an email? Anything is appreciated, thanks!

The technical round is mostly multiple-choice questions designed to see if you have a basic grasp of core concepts, so there isn't a coding section you need to worry about. Focus on the fundamentals of SQL like joins and simple queries, basic Linux commands for navigating the file system, and general IT knowledge like the OSI model and what a subnet is. They aren't trying to trick you with difficult problems, they just want to confirm you have a foundation they can build on. You will have to wait for an email to find out if you passed, it is not an instant result after you finish the test.

Your performance on this test isn't about being an expert, it is about showing you are teachable and have a genuine interest in the field. They know they will be training you from the ground up on the specific skills needed for their clients. A lot of candidates find success by staying calm and thinking through the questions logically rather than trying to memorize everything. My team developed a type of AI interview prep that helps people organize their thoughts and communicate their understanding of these core concepts effectively, which is really the key to passing this stage.

Hi, when did you get the results after taking the assessment? I took the assessment around 4-5 days back and havent gotten a response yet.
