How to Prepare

The questions on this page lean towards SOQL and Data, Deployment and Tools and Integration. Spend most of your revision time there, then cover the remaining topics lightly.

  • Run relationship, aggregate and subquery examples in the Developer Console until you can write them without looking.
  • Practise a full retrieve and deploy cycle with package.xml so you can describe each step with confidence.
  • Know one integration end to end: authentication, callout, error handling and testing with a mock.
  • Say your answers out loud. Interviewers listen for clear, structured explanations, not memorised definitions.
  • Prepare one or two real examples from your own projects for the general questions.
