Interview question - c#
- by ltech
I was tasked to conduct my first interview and would like to pose my question to this world for both their feedback on my question and also on their solutions.
Question:
I have a legacy system with users and
files, the info of all files
pertaining to a user are stored on a
flat file.
I want to upgrade this system by
storing all info on a db, design
tables, and create a C# system that
will populate the new db as well as
ftp the files to a new path.
Define the desgin consideration and
develop a prototype.
Note: We are looking more for what
design one would use and why rather
than code that compiles. If it does
then kudos to you and we will give it
more weight.
@Tim C,
I did show the interviewee the file:
User1234.txt
UserID=1234
ParentPath=\\somewhere\nowehere\everywhere\1234
FileCount=20
File0=something0.ext
..
File19=something19.ext
@Tim C, I have never conducted an interview and I followed a script given to me by my senior developer who was absent.
