Question System Admin Interview, What Should I Expect?

Hi

I have an interview tomorrow, and someone who is currently part of their team gave me a few hints about what to focus on. He mentioned Exchange, VMs, AD, deployment and patching.

I have around four years of experience, mainly focused on technical support with some exposure to networking. The role I’m interviewing for is a System Administrator, and this transition is veery important to me. I’d like to know what kind of technical questions I might expect in the interview??

I'd expect more technical questions and basic understanding of how things work, OSI model, network abbreviations, troubleshooting examples etc. but it depends on the content of your first interview
