It is rather easy to measure a candidate's technical knowledge. However,
having interviewed many many DBA's, I'm finding it difficult and less
reliable to measure these 2 traits ...
1) Being self-driven and initiative to learn on his/her own.
2) Owning work and progressing to completion to best of his/her ability.

After being hired, inefficiencies on these 2 areas appear as the most
common.

How do you validate these 2 traits in the interview process?

Thank you.
