Hi Partners,
Hope you are doing great!
I have an urgent requirement for the below position. Please let me know your availability and interest.
Please share Suitable resume to Irfan@Globalwebmaster.us
Position: Devops Engineer
Location: Wilmington, DE
Duration: 6+ Months of Contract
Client: Barclay Card
Local or Nearby State Consultant only
Interview : Homework Assignment /F2F
Number of positions: 5
Notes:
Barclays has given me a test to give to candidates they must complete the test before I submit
A project/homework assignment on GitHub has been posted (http://bcustech.github.io/devops-test/)
This is a GitHub link and they will receive another Link when they complete the exercise that we need them to give to us to submit along with the normal Resume & Supplier Sheet to BTG.
The exercise should take them at least a few hours (need to put thought into – understand the problem, draft a design plan, put together a layout and then code --- if they just start coding it will be a mess so coach candidates).
Interview/Hire Process:
- Homework Exercise (Hari will review upon submittal and request interview ASAP – I stressed these peep will be gone if he's slow)
- On-Site Interview (1 and done for 2 hours that will be all about the homework exercise so why doing that well is important, No Phone or Skype options – said it will not work with the interview format)
- ASAP to On-Board
Keys & Team Info:
- Hari has 8 direct reports (they range from Java Dev, .Net Dev, Unix/Linux Engineer, etc…) all of which have been learning Dev Ops, but not at the level of the people Barclays had in-house from ThoughtWorks).
- He wants these 5 hires to be at the same level as those from Thoughtworks. They will be out soon and he will be left supporting all of the existing technology teams in Cloud Dev Ops so he needs people that can ran ramp up in no time and hit the ground running with little oversight.
- Barclays is in the midst of leveraging a Privatized Internal Cloud, which is part of the key initiatives in 2016. This is all open source, open stack, cloud technology so looking for people coming from this type of environment now. He mentioned Cap One being a great example of doing now what they want to get to.
- Need to be good communicators – will be interacting with BCUS Technology teams daily so need to ability to independently think and stand up to other folks in technology when challenged.
- Will be picky with these hires and the Homework might be a big hurdle with candidates as they move really fast. Nobody in the loop today and said he will be patient
Due to the high volume of low grade resumes, we are instituting a pre-screening condition which must be met by all potential candidates before we proceed with interviews.
A project/homework assignment on GitHub has been posted (http://bcustech.github.io/devops-test/) in which candidates must complete before candidates are forwarded to TRM.
