I've just taken some tests for Linux jobs. For one, they gave me a Solaris test too. I scored higher on Solaris than Linux, even though it's been years since I touched Solaris and I've never been close to a guru with it ;-) Both Linux tests asked some really dopey questions, like how do you add a GTK theme to GNOME or something like that. Somebody thought that was a very useful, very indicative question :-) I pretty much double over laughing at some of the dopey-ass questions some people ask. "Do you have an A+?" I did, yeah... ten freakin' years ago! I had to answer a bunch of Windows 3.1 questions. How valuable is that today??? I hate job searching... -- *********************************************************************** * John Oliver http://www.john-oliver.net/ * * * *********************************************************************** -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
