  This is a very difficult question to answer as it's pretty much impossible to know what questions could be asked.  Doing a search in Google for sql+server+dba+interview+question resulted in many articles on interview questions like this one http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1472/sql-server-dba-phone-interview-questions/ and this one http://blog.sqlauthority.com/2007/04/21/sql-server-interview-questions-and-answers-complete-list-download/ which contain quite a lot of sample questions.

  Greetings,

  Jeff's web site links are a great place to look for the information you are looking for.  I would also like to add a link for one book: http://www.amazon.com/Server-Interview-Questions-Answers-Administrators/dp/1466405643/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1331297346&sr=8-1  It is available in print or ebook format.  I purchased it for my wife when she was considering a job change last year.  She found it helpful.

  Hello,

  I am going to get the book, I have read the preview and the customers review and that is what I need.

  Thank you so so much! Do you have anyother suggestions apart from this book, please?
