1

ITIL

ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) is a set of best practices for IT service management that is designed to help organizations improve the quality and efficiency of their IT services. ITIL is based on a framework of processes and procedures that cover the entire lifecycle of IT services, from design and development to delivery and support.

2

Service Functions

Service Functions are the core activities that are performed as part of IT service management, according to the ITIL framework. These functions include activities such as incident management, problem management, change management, and service level management.

 

3

SLA

SLA (Service Level Agreement): A Service Level Agreement (SLA) is a contract between an IT service provider and a customer that specifies the level of service that will be provided and the expectations for service delivery.

4

Service Request

A Service Request is a request made by a user or customer for a specific IT service or change to an IT service. Service Requests are typically managed through an IT service desk or other support function, and may be subject to approval or review before they are fulfilled.

The test is created by a subject-matter expert

Testlify’s skill tests are designed by experienced SMEs (subject matter experts). We evaluate these experts based on specific metrics such as expertise, capability, and their market reputation. Prior to being published, each skill test is peer-reviewed by other experts and then calibrated based on insights derived from a significant number of test-takers who are well-versed in that skill area. Our inherent feedback systems and built-in algorithms enable our SMEs to refine our tests continually.

Top five hard skills interview questions for ITIL

1. How familiar are you with the ITIL framework and its key components?
Why this Matters?

ITIL is a widely used framework for IT service management, and understanding its key components is essential for maintaining quality IT services.

What to listen for?

Look for candidates who have a clear understanding of the ITIL framework and can articulate its key components. They should be able to discuss how ITIL can be applied to the organization and share their experience working with ITIL.

2. Can you walk me through the ITIL service lifecycle?
Why this Matters?

The ITIL service lifecycle is a key concept within the ITIL framework, and it is essential to understand the different stages of the lifecycle to manage IT services effectively.

What to listen for?

Candidates should be able to describe the five stages of the ITIL service lifecycle, including service strategy, service design, service transition, service operation, and continual service improvement.

3. How do you measure and report on service performance within the ITIL framework?
Why this Matters?

Measuring and reporting on service performance is critical for ensuring quality IT services and meeting service level agreements (SLAs).

4. Can you give an example of how you have used ITIL to improve service delivery?
Why this Matters?

ITIL is designed to help organizations improve their IT service management, and candidates who have experience applying ITIL to real-world situations are more likely to be effective in the role.

What to listen for?

Listen for candidates who can provide a clear and detailed example of how they have applied ITIL to improve service delivery. They should be able to explain the problem they were trying to solve, the ITIL components they used, and the results of their efforts.

5. How do you ensure that ITIL processes are followed consistently across the organization?
Why this Matters?

Consistency is key to effective IT service management, and ensuring that ITIL processes are followed consistently across the organization is critical to maintaining quality IT services.
