We are currently starting the process of interviewing/hiring a junior dba. My boss would like me to come up with a small case study (1/2 hour or less - no reference materials) to help determine the actual level of experience the applicants have. The interview plan is : Applicant comes in and is given the case study to work on for 1/2 hour. After the 1/2 hour, interview starts. During the interview, the applicant will have to present his/her case study. Does anyone have any ideas on a good simple case study example?
