What kind of questions would you ask about this Elasticsearch project in a junior interview?
Hi everyone!
I'm preparing for my first technical interview and would really appreciate some advice from people who work with Elasticsearch.
My interview task was to deploy a 3-node Elasticsearch cluster using Ansible. I decided to run everything locally with Docker Compose instead of VMs because of my laptop resources.
Besides Elasticsearch, I also added:
Kibana
Metricbeat
Filebeat
Everything is automated with Ansible roles.
My lecturer told me that during the interview they'll mostly evaluate my way of thinking, not whether I remember every API by heart. I have absolutely no idea what "my way of thinking" even means.
So I'd like to ask experienced engineers:
If you were interviewing a junior candidate who built this project, what questions would you ask?
What topics would you expect them to understand?
Thanks!
