Good day from Singapore,<br>
<br>
I need to learn more about BIND DNS server to pass my job interview next Monday.<br>

Email subject: Invitation For Interview<br>
<br>
Dear Turritopsis Dohrnii Teo En Ming,<br>
<br>
<br>
Thank you for participating in our online assessments. We are pleased to invite you to an Onsite Interview!<br>
<br>
We will be assessing your thought process in solving complex questions and your ability to learn technical concepts. You are strongly advised to familiarise yourself with the following technical concepts:<br>
<br>
Domain Name System (DNS); and <br>
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)<br>
<br>
For the above concepts, you must be able to explain and elaborate on the technicalities of how each of them work, as well as the security concerns for each of them.<br>
<br>
We are looking for candidates who demonstrate a deep technical understanding of the subjects. This session is your opportunity to showcase your knowledge of cybersecurity and share what excites you about our programme.<br>
<br>
Be authentic in your responses—focus on your own knowledge rather than memorizing answers from chatGPT or other AI tools. We value genuine insights and critical thinking over rehearsed replies.<br>
<br>
You can click here to book a time slot.<br>
<br>
Hope to see you soon!<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
The XXX Team<br>
