My recent experience using ChatGPT for DevOps mock interview

I recently came across a Reddit post discussing how people leverage ChatGPT to practice tech interview through simulated mock interviews. Being intrigued by that thread and currently on the job hunt, I decided to give it a shot myself an hour ago using the suggested command, with the GPT-4o model, and no customize.

The command I used (I highlight what is specific for me)

Hello ChatGPT, I would like to be interviewed for the position of DevOps engineer at a bank, working on the production team.
I would like for the interview to be structured as a question-and-answer session, with each question followed by a response from me. This time we will focus on one of the key responsibilities: Supporting cloud migration to GCP from on premise hosting.

After I have answered all of the questions, I would like for you to evaluate my responses and make a final hiring recommendation based on my performance in the interview.

At the very end, give an expansive evaluation, and include any recommendations that you would have on improving my answers

This is a real time, turn based exercise. After each question, you should stop, let me input a response for each question in turn.

Hereby I share the conversation with screenshots (no preparation and editing)

This time I had more than one idea and want to make a list, but accidentally pressed Enter 🙂

Here are the evaluations and feedback provided by the “interviewer”

It is true that my answers were more general, toward “Cloud migration”.
I forgot to mention anything about the existing GCP solutions, even though my command revolved around “GCP migration”.

But in the end, if the interview stops at “Supporting cloud migration to GCP from on premise hosting“, ChatGPT wanted to proceed further with me 🙂
