Junior Access Database Administrator Interview Experience - Phoenix, Arizona

July 1, 2014
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Starts out with online HireVue one way interview. The system allows practice with 3 questions that are very generic; why are you qualified, best achievement and biggest challenge. Moving forward the live recorded questions were technical in nature and (in my opinion) not directly related to the position requirements. UHG provided a 'typical day' description of this position's duties.

The description mentioned MS Access 4 times, and no other applications. The HireVue questions pertained to .NET programming and SQL commands and server, nothing to do with MS Access. I felt there was a disconnect there and frankly a bit unfair. Next came the interview with HR recruiter, and all but 1 question was asking about technical skills; how many years with Access, any experience with VB, etc. The only question outside of skills was why do you want to work for UHG.

Questions

The most difficult questions were the live HireVue questions. After being able to practice on generic interview questions they turn 180 degrees to technical questions which in itself is enough to make one take a step back.

In addition the questions were not in line with the job description. The questions were what is a @page directive, difference between delete and truncate, difference between clustered and non-clustered index.
