Rackspace Technology Data Centre Operations Technician interview questions

I received a call from the recruitment team at Rackspace after my CV had been located on the job board and had been informed about this wonderful opportunity. A full job description was provided which really appealed to me and had agreed for an interview. When i went for the interview i was really nervous as i wanted this opportunity so much. I was interviewed by 2 guys Kevin and Scott who were really great. Scott lead the interview and really made me open up and be myself by asking all the right questions and ensuring i was not under any pressure. Overall it was a good process, Scott and Kevin were great people and it was a good experience.

I went into the Rackspace building for an interview feeling quite nervous (at least at first), mainly because I feel that the position I am applying for would be a stepping stone to help get me on the path to where I want to get to. It would provide the resources, and hopefully a stable foundation while I work on my own personal aspirations (given the time), also being apart of a company that seems to always strive on getting better, being apart of something that i think is great, feels good too. Even better if they are doing this for their Country, and not just for themselves. The nerves shortly settled as the two staff members conducting the interview helped provide a relaxing atmosphere, even though it seemed they were constantly reading me, I still felt confortable even if feeling completely transparent and potentially vunerable at times, the staff members showed understanding, curiousity, reassurance and encouragement they were also able to help me understand certain concepts using their skills, through teaching, i learnt (thank you Scott for explaining the RAID in a way I could take on board). Even though I made some errors in the interview the critism I recieved back I thought was fair, and even though I may have been disapointed with myself at times they helped lift up my mood slightly by complementing me on one of my strenghts during the interview which i feel helped me, understand and move on and not let it hinder the rest of the interview, which i think was a good technique. All this helped make the interview easier, for me as the person being interviewed.
