Question Paper



Hi,

I'm currently preparing for an interview on VB.Net Development.. could
someone please give me an idea as to what type of questions can one ask
(it's a practical test) and what sort of things I should be prepared
for? It's going to be on VB.Net and connectivity with SQL Server
perhaps.. any help would be appreciated. Thank you

I think the easiest way to answer this is like this.

On paper, design a simple personel system with a windows forms or ASP.NET
front end, the backend could be SQL 2000 Developer edition. Then design some
simple tables for your system. these should be normalised and have the
relevent data populated.

Pay attention to Authentication, Connectivity, Users, Groups, Validation,
the UI and its display, edit, insert and delete or records. Find out about
triggers, stored procedures.

On the VB.NET Side, get to know the DataGrid, DataSet, DataTables,
DataRow/Column, SQLDataAdapter Connection Object.

Now code it, and get yourself into lots of trouble, and code/design your way
out of it.
I just hope your interview is a way off

Hi,

There will probably be two parts. Technical and Design.

Technical:
Datasets
Data Adapters
Data Readers
Connected vs. Disconnected
Calling Stored Procedures
Transactions
Object Oriented Programming
(classes, inheritance, encapsulation, and polymorphism)
Language Competence
(loops, decisions, functions, subs, constants, recursive functions)
Additionally they may want to see how far your knowledge and understanding
of the .Net Framework extends. Especially with VB. You should know how to
use the Framework to do many things that you did via just the language or
the Windows API in previous versions of VB.

Design:
You will want to know how to put together a program. Reading through some
of the MSDN Patterns & Practices documentation should give you an
understanding of things. Basically they'll want to know if you know what
the following are and how they fit in:

Data Access Layer
Business Logic Layer
Service Agents
User Interface

Check out:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/architectu...s/html/Esp.asp

If you are short on time focus on the technical. Show them you are team
player and willing to learn. Unless you are applying for a tech lead or
higher, most companies don't expect a new hire to have the design stuff
nailed down. Good luck! Ken.

Authentication! I forgot that one. If they develop stricly Intranet apps
then check out Windows Authentication. But if they do Internet apps then
your time would be best spent investigating Forms Authentication. Good
luck! Ken.
