Interview Questions for Desktop SupportInterview Questions for Desktop Support Technician/Analyst

General QuestionsQ. What desktop operating systems are you familiar with?A. Before you answer this question, you should have some background information on what operating systems are used within the organization you are interviewing with. Undoubtedly, you will be asked to elaborate on your skill set with each of these operating systems so it’s best to tailor your elaboration to the operating systems that are relevant to the hiring manager. This being said, don’t leave out mentioning experience in other operating systems. You never know whether the company may be evaluating the migration to a different OS.Q. Have you used imaging software before? How do you find these tools useful?A. Automation tools are an important part of your job as a desktop support technician. Elaborate on the tools that you’ve used. Hiring managers want to assess your in-depth knowledge and experience with using these tools. This means talking about how you use their various feature sets. (If you have an opinion, you probably know the product pretty well.)Q. What are the pitfalls of using imaging software?A. This question is meant to assess how well you know these products. For example, discussing the importance of testing the image demonstrates that you use these tools on a regular basis.Q. Have you used any software distribution tools? If so, which ones and how were they used?A. Like imaging software, software distribution tools are an important part of your job. Hiring managers are looking for knowledge that these tools exist and how they can be used to support your organization.Q. What do you like most about desktop support?A. Hiring managers are looking for what motivates you. Hopefully your answer will match the characteristics of the job: being busy, working with different people, and the challenges of learning new operating systems and configurations.Q. What do you like least about desktop support?A. The hiring manager is testing whether you will fit in with the existing team. An appropriate answer here would be not being able to resolve a problem in a timely manner for reasons outside your control, such as hardware failure. Stick to things outside of your control for the best response.Q. When solving a desktop problem, do you prefer to work with the end-user, your peers, or on your own?A. This is another question to determine your fit within the organization. Hiring managers understand that to be successful as a support technician you will have to work in a team environment. This means working with other employees, vendors, and end-users on a constant basis.Q. Can you describe a situation where you have had to deal with a difficult person? How did you handle it? Would you do anything differently?A. Desktop support can be very demanding some days. End-users only see their own priority needs and often are not interested in other demands on your time. This question explores how you deal with a difficult end-user by understanding their problem, assessing priorities, and communicating a timeframe for resolution. Often good communication can help both sides come to an agreement. Make sure you have an example with a successful outcome.

Q. How would you say you are able to handle stress?A. Hiring managers are looking to see what coping techniques you can draw on to deal with stress. Sometimes from the answer, they can also determine whether you are prone to stress. When responding, some techniques for handling stress that you may want to talk about include continually evaluating what’s on your plate and prioritizing, communicating with your manager on what your priorities are, and making sure that you take a break to reenergize, particularly at lunch time.Q. What do you see yourself doing two or three years from now?A. Hiring managers want you to stick around. They realize that you will not be in this position forever, and they want to make sure there’s a desire to move up within the organization as well as the right fit. They ask this question to see whether there’s a growth path for you possible within the organization. As a desktop technician, natural growth paths are team leads, quality assurance, engineering positions, and entry-level development. Be honest about where you want to be in two to three years, and ask the interviewer whether they see your career path as a possibility.Q. How do you learn new technologies?A. Learning is an inherent part of the job. Hiring managers are looking for someone who enjoys learning technology on their own and who has the foresight to look for training opportunities. Besides the traditional books and manuals, don’t forget to include user groups, eLearning subscriptions, and IT professional sites such as CramSession.Q. How do you prioritize tasks and manage your time?A. What hiring managers want to know is whether you have time-management skills. Everyone manages their time differently, but think about how you handle e-mail, when you check voice mail, how you respond to pages, when you research and document, and how you pick up new trouble tickets.Q. Imagine the following situation: you receive three simultaneous calls from three vicepresidents who need assistance immediately. How do you manage these conflictingpriorities?A. Obviously this is a trick question. What the hiring manager is trying to assess is how you set expectations with each of the individuals, knowing very well that you won’t be able to assist all of them at the same time. They are also looking for how you will prioritize each of these incidents, including seeking assistance from peers and supervisors in order to meet user expectations. Don’t allow the “tyranny of the urgent” to divert you from managementestablished support priorities.Q. How would you handle a user who continually misdiagnoses their PC issues?A. By asking this question, the hiring manager is assessing your customer service skills. In this situation, you may want to discuss that the key is to not offend the user and turn them off to your support services. In handling this situation, you would pay particular attention to ways you can build trust with the user and lead them to the right resolution to their problem.These components may include:

Acknowledging the user’s diagnosis Asking the user to reproduce the problem Finding a solution that works

Q. How do you handle setting up new employees?A. This question is used by the hiring manager to assess your knowledge of common practices within the IT department, such as setting up new users. Obviously, the IT department plays a critical role in the productivity of the new employee. The role of the desktop technician is to help ease the new employee into the resources available to them and get them up to speed quickly. In responding to this question, you may want to talk about some of the tools you’ve used inthe past to help users acquaint themselves with their new environment. Some tools that help are:

A new-user welcome letter that is customized to the specific user with all their relevant information including telephone extension, how to access voice mail, and how to log in. It might also include a FAQ on getting help.

A “Getting to Know Your Helpdesk” document that provides an orientation to helpdesk service, such as how to contact the helpdesk, its hours of operation, what is and what is not supported by the helpdesk, and answers to common new-user questions.

Technical QuestionsQ. What questions would you ask to help isolate a user’s problem?A. This question is used by the hiring manger to assess your problem-solving abilities. The following represent some of the common questions that you would ask the end-user to help diagnose a situation:

When did the problem first start? Has the system ever worked properly? What was the last thing done to the system prior to the failure? Is the issue intermittent or ongoing/constant? Are there any error messages? If so, what are the specific error messages? Has any new hardware been added to the system? Has any new software been added to the system, including downloads from the Internet? Has anything changed with the system (for example, has it been moved) since the issue

presented itself? Has anyone else had access to the system? Are there any environmental factors that could be causing the issue? Have you done any troubleshooting on the system on your own? Have you checked all the cables/connections for a tight fit?

Q. What are the main differences between the following operating systems?A. Unfortunately, most companies have not been able to standardize the operating systems used by users. It’s always critical that you know more than just the current version because there will always be a user who has a problem with an older version. By asking this question, the hiring manager is actually testing your knowledge of different operating systems that you may need to support. The following provides a concise summary of some of the major differences.Windows 2000 and XP

Overall, XP is a minor update with Windows 2000 designed to get Windows 2000 technology into the hands of consumers. The major changes include the following:

Device driver rollback Remote control (single-user terminal services) New Start menu, control panel, and user interface elements Fast user switching Encrypted file system support for redirected folders Better support for roaming wireless networking Enhanced policies Credential Manager Personal firewall

Q. What are typical virus sources and how do you prevent virus attacks?A. This is virus protection 101 just to ensure that you understand the basics of protecting against viruses. Possible virus sources include e-mail attachments, Internet downloads, and infected floppy disks. To prevent virus infections:

Use anti-virus software. Perform regular updates to the virus software definition files and scan engines. Verify

updates have succeeded.

Perform regularly scheduled virus checks. Configure software to check all files, not just program files. Educate users on virus attacks, their consequences, and how to prevent them. Know where all software came from. Do regular backups. Develop reporting mechanisms to inform server administrators of observed desktop

infections and how these could impact the server environment (such as deletions or corruption of files on public shares, hidden payload files that might have been uploaded to servers, and so on).

Q. What are some of the guidelines you would recommend for implementing security at the user level?A. Security is a major part of the desktop technician’s day-to-day responsibilities. As the closest point of contact to the end-users, technicians need to be savvy on the different methods for enforcing security. Some of the top techniques are included below.

Anti-virus software:

Ensure that all users install and regularly use anti-virus software on their PCs. Instruct users to immediately notify the helpdesk when they suspect they’ve contracted a

virus.Password security:

Instruct users not to give out their passwords. Instruct users not to write down their passwords. Instruct users to make sure their password cannot be easily guessed by using a combination

of alphanumeric characters, including special characters (~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) + = [ ] { } / ? < > , ; : \ | ` ’ ” .).

Instruct users to change their password if they think there is even a slight chance someone knows it.

Instruct users to ensure their password is at least eight characters long. Instruct users not to use a variation of their user ID. Regularly change passwords on Administrator accounts on PCs (NT, Windows 2000 and XP)

Desktop security:

Instruct users not to leave their workstation logged in overnight. Instruct users to enable screen savers that automatically lock their PC when there is no

activity on it for more than five minutes.

What is picking and packing in computer networkingAs far as I know this term is used for items that needs to be picked from various locations in a warehouse whenever a customer fills the shopping cart and & submits the list for purchase.

What are port numbers for telnet , ftp, http and rpcTelnet : Remote login works on port number 23.

Allows you to establish remote session on the server. Does not support Graphical User Interface (GUI) interface but supports only through commands, i:e; command line utility. And provides very little security.

FTP : File Transfer Protocol works on port number 20/21.FTP works on Application Layer Protocol and is used to transfer files securely between TCP/IP systems, providing file security. More secured because of user authentication and user logons and

uses two types of connections (Data and Control Connection). FTP uses many commands and FTP uses TCP,i:e; 20 port number for data connection and 21 for control connection.

HTTP : Hypertext Transfer Protocol works on port number 80. HTTP is used to transfer hypertext files across internet. Requires an HTTP client program on one end and HTTP server program on other end.

RPC : Remote Procedure Calls works on port number 135.RPC is used for remote administration. Its function is to forward application function call to a remote system over the network. It can be used in IPv6 or IPng (IP version 6 or IP next generation which uses 128 - bit IP addressing).

IIS server backupHi, Its too simply to IIS backup. Take the system state backup in that only IIS will be consider, if the server is IIS.

You want to connect a cable modem to a switch. Which cable would you use?Straight cable.

If we use different devices we can use straight cable.If we use same devices we can use cross cable

For connecting the Switch to Modem we use standard cable in any version of UDP (cat 1.2.3.4.5.5e.6)

Which intermediary device regenerates data signals ?Basically when our signal is weak (on a network) then we should have a repeater device. This device used to regenerate the weak signal.

What is difference between ipv4 & ipv6 ?IPv4 means Internet Protocol version 4, whereas IPv6 means Internet Protocol version 6.

IPv4 is 32 bits IP address that we use commonly, it can be 192.168.8.1, 10.3.4.5 or other 32 bits IP addresses. IPv4 can support up to 232 addresses, however the 32 bits IPv4 addresses are finishing to be used in near future, so IPv6 is developed as a replacement.

IPv6 is 128 bits, can support up to 2128 addresses to fulfill future needs with better security and network related features. Here are some examples of IPv6 address:1050:0:0:0:5:600:300c:326b ff06::c3 0:0:0:0:0:0:192.1.56.10

The most important difference is that it has a larger address space. IPv6 uses 128 bits, instead of the 32 bits used in an IPv4 address. 

Ans :-There is major difference between IP V.4 and IP V.6 such as -1.In IP V.4 is a 32 bits IP Address but IP v.6 128 bits IP Address.2.IP v.4 is a Decimal Format, but IP V.6 is Hexa-Decimal Number.3.IP V.4 has 4 Octets, but IP V.6 has 16 Octets.4.IP V.4 is supported by Operating System, but IP V.6 is supported by only some Operating System.5.In IP V.4 only limited number of IP Address are available, but in IP V.6 a number of IP Addresses are available.

Role of active directoryActive Directory will represent a major advance over NT 4.0's simple domain model, since the domains within Active Directory will be able to form a multi-level tree structure. Customers will be able to establish two-way transitive trust relationships among these domains. Lower-level domains trust all the higher-level domains within the hierarchical tree. This arrangement will make trust relationships easier to manage and will make possible the delegation of administrative authority from higher to lower levels within the tree. Active Directory will bear on security in two ways. First, Active Directory will be the repository for security policy information for the enterprise. For example, Active Directory will be able to store domain-wide password restrictions and system access privileges. Second, Active Directory will incorporate the object-based security model, controlling each user or group's right to read or update objects within the directory. The directory will therefore be able to hold such important items as encrypted passwords and user certificates with the assurance that only authorized users will be able to read or change them.

What is the advantage of subnetting an ip address?Subnetting is a best technique for network.When we split a large n/w into small n/w it is a called Subnetting. with the help of subnetting we can reduce the N/w congetion. Because all coputer broadcast for transmission. So we break huge network into small network and now broadcasting will be done only small network. 

Wth the help of subnetting we can save money. Because we buy an single IP address from ISP and  encrese the IP address from Subnetting. 

That's why we can say that subnetting is best tool for encrese bandwidth and save the money.

Subnetting is a technique using which we can create segments in a large netwroks.

lets go by an example..where we have private ip address n/w 10.0.0.0 /8.What this means is that we will have 2^24 -2 address in the same network..so broadcast will go to all the addresses in this n/w.But if we subnet the n/w we can create multiple n/ws ...since by default routers won't allow broadcasts to be sent to other n/w..we can manage our n/ws in a better way.

If a problem is occured in any specific segment..it won't affect other segments.

We can also save precious ip addresses in a network using subnetting.

What is router?it is used for communication between two VLAN'sA router is a OSI layer 3 device used to connect devices belonging to different networks

How does dora process works in dhcp?DORA stands for Discover Offer Request Ack 

When there is request been sent from the client and there should be a response should be sent from the the server, So the process discovering the request been sent from which client and send the Ack to the client from te server that the request is been accecpted 

How will you check if router goes down?As a engg, in client place router goes down & client do not know anything about it, how will you check it & how you will make it up (by siting in your office)? What are all precheck you will do in client place & what cmd you will use to check it?

Every router has a LED to indicate whether the connection to the internet is healthy/not.If the connection is healthy i.e. smooth n going.... then the LED glows GreenIf the connection is unhealthy i.e. the router goes down / there is some disruption in the n/w path.. then the LED glows Amber (Yellowish Orange)

Can infrastructure master and GLobal catalog be on same domain?no because Infrastructure master performs its task by comparing its state against the state of a GC - and updates other DCs in the same domain based on the outcome. Effectively, the update would never took place since no differences would be detected.

Mac address and ip addressWhy we want mac address as well as ip addresswhy one address is not enough in net work

mac adress is the physical adress of a computer.which is 48 bit.but ip adress is the logical adress assinged to   perticular computer .there is two version of ip adress ipv4(32 bit) and ipv6(64 bit).if u type ipconfig/all from the command promt of a computer u can find that both adress.

IP Address : Its a 32-bit unique numeric identifier assigned to every host on the network. Its a logical address of any TCP/IP host or a machine (computer).

IP address helps a system to be uniquely identified on the network. We can check the IP address of any computer by typing the following in the command prompt : ipconfig and hit enter.

MAC Address : Its a 48-bit unique address embedded or encoded on the network card (NIC). MAC address is also called ethernet address, hardware address and physical address.

We can check the MAC address of any computer by typing the following in the command prompt : ipconfig /all and hit enter. This command helps to view the IP address and MAC address of the computer simultaneously.

Internet connection issueIf someone finds that their internet connectivity is down, how would you fix the problem?:I would ask them to do the following steps.

Step 1. Reset / Restart the Modem. If no connection then

Step 2. Reset Network Connection / Restart the PCIf not connection then

Step 3. Call up the Internet Service Provider and log a complaint.

If someone is using a laptop they may have accidentally turned their wifi connection off. This is fixed by:

Looking for the wifi connection button on the top row of the keyboard. It looks similar to the letter A surrounded by parenthesis. Push it to turn the wifi connection back on.

A user can log on to the network but has no internet connection? Explain what could be the problem.Check that user account is part of appropriate security groupcheck the proxy settings of the network.

if after checking both doesn't worktry refreshing the group policy and reinstall the client software (browser)

First of all check weather the user account has appropriate membership on the domain to access internetif that is OK please check the proxy settings of the web browser

if that is OK too try to refresh the group policy of the client and run the login script to make sure all permissions are refreshed .

if after following all these steps no connectivity please reinstall the browser or repair it an restart the PC

First check the user account's membership in ADif account is allowed to access internet check proxy settingsif proxy settings are all ok update the group policy of the client machine and rerun the login script if does not work reinstall the client software

EthernetWhat is the differnce b/w ethernet and internet?

Internet is global network or in other words we can say it is WAN. But Ethernet is a medium that is used to connect computers in a LAN. These computers may be hosts or clients.

Ethernet is a physical and data link layer technology for LANs. IP use Ethernet as their transmission medium. Data travels over Ethernet inside protocol units called frames.

The Internet is a global system of interconnected computer networks that use the standard TCP/IP to serve billions of users worldwide. It is a network of networks

Acl and firewallHow does a firewall differ from acl?

ACL Manager lets you control routers and firewalls from your PC . Deploy the same access list to different device types such as Cisco and Juniper. Save time and money in router ACL management. Manage thousands of routers from a single application. Minimize errors in ACL deployment.

A ACL is a Active Control List - So you specify a rule in a list of rules that data on a certain ip and or port can access another port and or ip address.  In essence its more like a rule in a router, allow everything to flow unless you specifically want it to do something else.

Where as a firewall acts as a inbetween between a trusted network and a untrusted one, so you could make a firewall not allow any traffic into your network except that on port 80 or even except traffic from a certain IP address.What is ads & adsl?ADS stands for Active Directory Services.  Generally anything to do with authentication against an Active Directory to workstations or network shares as well as global and security group membership is covered under ADS.

ADSL is short for Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line.  DSL is a very common broadband Internet access method in use all over the place.  Asynchronous means that the rate of download is different from, and in my experience always greater than, the rate of upload.  It is also possible to have SDSL.  That would be Synchronous where the rate of download and upload is the same.

Cache modeWhat is cache mode? Wat is the use of cache mode?While configuring Exchange mail client in outlook for the user. there it shows two modes:

1. Cache Exchange Mode

2. Offline Mode

1. Cache Exchange Mode:  Cached mode is generally faster when you're connected and reduces network traffic (especially useful across slower links). Also can require less effort by the user and less impact on their productivity [not as much time spent waiting for synchronizations to finish].

2. Offline Mode: is used to configure mail a/c in mobiles users.

It stores a copy of your network mailbox, including your messages and other information  on your local drive. This allows you to use GroupWise whether or not your network or Post Office Agent is available. Because you are not connected to the network all the time, this mode cuts down on network traffic and has the best performance. A connection is made automatically to retrieve and send new messages. All updates are performed in the background so your work is not interrupted.

You should use this mode if you have enough disk space on your local drive to store your mailbox.

Protocol configurationWhat is meant by protocol configuration? What are the available types?Protocol means set rules applying to system which is in network to communicate to another system. General protocol use in between PC-to-PC communication is TCP/IP.

The other protocols are FTP,SMTP,POP,HTTP,HTTPS etc.

The other protocols use in network are RIP,IGRP,EIGRP,OSPF,BGP,IS-IS etc called as routing protocols. These protocols used for communication in between routers.

Multiple active directory forestsWhat might be some valid reasons for maintaining multiple active directory forests?The multiple active directory forests are implemented when there is a big environment with multiple domains.1. Security 2. Better Management.

Configure dns

configure DNS for Active Directory. Here is the procedure.

1. Click Start --> Settings --> Control Panel.

2. Double-click Add/Remove Programs and then click Add/Remove Windows Components.

3. In Components, select Networking Services and then click Details.

4. In Subcomponents of Networking Services, select the Domain Name System (DNS) check box, click OK, and then click Next.

5. In Copy Files From, type the full path to the Windows 2000 distribution files and then click OK.

To host Active Directory, you must properly configure DNS with a zone for the Active Directory namespace. You should create both zone types for a proper DNS implementation for your Active Directory namespace — that is, a forward lookup zone and a reverse lookup zone. Read on to discover how.

Creating a forward lookup zone

To create a forward lookup zone:

1. Click Start --> Programs --> Administrative Tools --> DNS.

Windows 2000 launches the DNS Microsoft Management Console, from which you can perform your DNS administration.

2. Expand the DNS server.

3. Right-click the Forward Lookup Zone folder and choose New Zone.

4. Click Next to continue when the New Zone wizard appears.

The wizard takes the pain out of DNS administration.

5. Ensure that Standard Primary is selected and click Next.

6. Ensure that Forward Lookup Zone is selected and click Next.

7. At the New Zone page, type the name of your zone (for example, fordummies.com) and click Next.

8. Select Create a New File With This File Name and click Next.

9. Click Finish.

Creating a reverse lookup zone

To create a reverse lookup zone:

1. Click Start --> Programs --> Administrative Tools --> DNS.

2. Expand the DNS server.

3. Right-click your server and choose New Zone.

4. Click Next to continue when the New Zone wizard appears.

5. Ensure that Standard Primary is selected and click Next.

6. Ensure that Reverse Lookup Zone is selected and click Next.

7. Ensure that Network ID is selected, type your network ID in the Network ID field, and click Next.

8. Select Create a New File With This File Name and click Next.

9. Click Finish.

As far as Active Directory is concerned, your DNS server is almost ready. You should now configure the forward and reverse lookup zones for dynamic updating so that you do not get stuck creating all the records required for Active Directory yourself!

GatewayWhat is a gateway? How does it work?A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to another network.

Every device in the network is configured with gateway address. The gateway address should be on the same subnet.

Configure managable switch1. Setup utility that comes with the package via an ethernet connection.2. 2. Local console management in terminal emulation program via a rs-232 cable connection.

Ad replicationHow does active directory replication work?

Active Directory,the Directory service that is included with the Microsoft Winows 2000 and 2003,is a distributed directory service.Objects in the Directory are distributed across the domain controllers in a forest, and all the domain controllers in a domain can be updated directly,this is called Multimaster.REPLICATION is the process by which the changes made on one domain controller are synchronized with all the other domian controllres in the domain or the forest.Data integrity is maintained by tracking the changes made on each dc and updating other domain controllers in a systematic way.For any further information you can also refer to the following microsoft articles:-How Active Directory Replication Topology Workshttp://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver/en/library/c238f32b-4400-4a0c-b4fb-7b0febecfc731033.mspx?mfr=true How the Active Directory Replication Model Workshttp://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver/en/library/1465d773-b763-45ec-b971-c23cdc27400e1033.mspx?mfr=true

Active Directory also includes a replication feature. Replication ensures that changes to a domain controller are reflected in all domain controllers within a domain. A domain controller stores a replica of the domain directory. Each domain can contain one or more domaincontrollers.Within a site, Active Directory

automatically generates a ring topology for replication among domain controllers in the same domain. The topology defines the path for directory updates to flow from one domain controller to another until all receive the directory updates .

Within a site, replication between domain controllers happens automatically.The ring structure ensures that there are at least two replication paths from one domaincontroller to another. Therefore, if one domain controller is down temporarily, replicationstill continues to all other domain controllers.Active Directory periodically analyzes the replication topology within a site to ensurethat it is still efficient. If you add or remove a domain controller from the network or asite, Active Directory reconfigures the topology to reflect the change.
