Where are my IT/Networking peeps?!?

Like I said, Id give you full points if it was my interview.
To me, as an IT manager, I look for people that can find the answer, not ones that know it all (or think they do).

Maybe he meant you already have /22 of your /16 class B already used. The more I read the original question, the more it makes me think thats what he was getting at. Very poorly worded if you ask me. Also a very dated question. You should have called him crazy for using a router and not a layer 3 switch.

I want to bring it up but I want to make sure I have all my i's dotted and my t's crossed when I question him. Then to decide whether to include him on the clarification or if I keep him out of it and take it directly to the ones in charge of hiring and let them decided if they want to address it with him or not. Hmmm....

That's another thing I told them. I said that I was good at getting the right answer to questions I didn't know for sure using resources like the internet. I'm the first one to say that I don't know everything so I tend to double and triple check my work to various sources. This keeps me out of trouble. Let's face it, there won't ever be a time where I would be in a scenario that this interview put me in... no way to look up the answer or double check my answer to make sure. Kind of unrealistic.
