Question 3 of 30

What are some of the features of the Lotus Notes Database?

Throughout the interview, you will be asked about the features, functionality, and other characteristics of Lotus Notes. Typically these questions occur early in the interview, but the interviewer can ask them if any time. Good interviewers will switch from using common general questions to more difficult ones at different times during the interview. This prevents both them and you from becoming complacent and provides opportunities for you to relax and refresh. Professional interviewers try to make the interview process as stress-free as possible to better understand your technical and professional capabilities versus your ability to function under pressure.

      How to Answer

      While you can't know about every feature of the Lotus Notes database, you should be intimately familiar with the most common ones. You should also structure your answer, so the person interviewing you gets the information they are looking for. HR personnel only need generalities to confirm your qualifications and sample your communication style. Direct hiring managers expect more in-depth information and will want to dig deeply into your skills and experience to ensure that you are capable of performing the work required by this position.

      Answer Example

      "Lotus Notes is different from an RDBMS database in that it is a multi-value database system, dealing with files that are document-centric and supporting persistent multiple values in items. Other key features include built-in document-level access control and persisting Rich Text data. In addition to functioning as a standalone database, Lotus Notes can map an RDBMS by using DECS, JDBCSQL, or NotesSQL."
