The Andela Standard: Network Entrance Assessments

With a blend of expertise in software development, system administration, and automation tools, DevOps Engineers spearhead the implementation of continuous integration and delivery practices, streamline deployment processes, and ensure the scalability and security of cloud-based environments.

1. Qualifications

Qualification criteria:

  • A minimum of 4 years of professional experience in a DevOps role (excluding intern and volunteer experience).
  • A bachelor's degree in a technology-related field or equivalent work experience.
  • Excellent spoken and written English communication skills.
  • Strong understanding of DevOps principles and practices, including continuous integration, continuous delivery, and infrastructure as code.
  • Proficiency in using DevOps tools such as Docker, Kubernetes, Jenkins, Git, and Ansible for automating deployment, scaling, and management of infrastructure.
  • Proficiency in scripting languages like Bash, Python, or Ruby, and experience with automation tools such as Jenkins or GitLab CI.
  • A commitment to continuous learning and adapting to evolving DevOps technologies

2. Skill Validation

This qualification assessment tests knowledge of the DevOps ecosystem. It's composed of Q&A and practical challenges that evaluate the candidate theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills. Each challenge focuses on a subject area and covers concepts, features, and real-world situations.

A technologist is approved in this test if all challenge level cut-off scores at met.

Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD)

Evaluates knowledge of Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD). It touches upon GitHub, Jenkins, AWS and Docker, among other tools and concepts in the DevOps ecosystem.

Kubernetes

This challenge ensures familiarity with Kubernetes commands, concepts and ecosystem.

Terraform

This challenge offers a variety of questions related to HashiCorp's Terraform tool. Technologists seasoned with the tool should perform well, while those less experienced will likely struggle to complete the quiz satisfactorily.

Scripting Challenge

This is an intermediate-level scripting challenge that involves keeping frequency state in a data structure, reading text files and manipulating strings.

3. Technical Interview

This assessment evaluates expertise in DevOps tools and applications through a real-time challenge. It's designed to be used as an interactive session with the technical screener.

During the assessment, technologists tackle a hands-on problem tailored to the core principles of DevOps. Their solution will first be verified by a battery of automated test cases to ensure it meets the functional requirements as well as industry standards. Then, our experienced interviewers step in to assess the overall efficiency of the candidate's solution.

Assessment Outline:

  • Deploying a Microservice Application:
    • This challenge is designed to comprehensively evaluate DevOps engineers by simulating a real-world scenario. Technologists are tasked with deploying a microservices-based application composed of two services, each in its separate folder with clear installation and run instructions. They must dockerize the services, set up a container orchestration platform, and establish CI/CD pipelines for automated deployments.
