If you provide your friends answers here then I'm sure that a few of us will give some guidance around their correctness.

I don't see how we can answer the experience based questions like:

3.	Explain when you have worked with LDAP user administration and detail some of the difficult you have faced in this area?

4.	If you can please provide examples of when you have managed technical security incidents relating SAP and none SAP technologies?

5.	Please explain a time when have you applied a controls based solution in dealing with a security related problem?

I have done plenty of all of these but it will not help another individual in an interview.

I can respond to each with one word:

No.

As Alex says, let's hear your friend's responses, and maybe we can discuss them amongst ourselves?

I agree.

Thread locked.
