Wat het meet

Designing, securing, operating and connecting networks on Amazon Web Services, from address plans and routing to hybrid links.

Cloud network architecture and design

Candidates reason about address plans, route tables and cloud network connection designs.

Network security and compliance

Candidates consider network policies and security when choosing a configuration.

Network operations and troubleshooting

Candidates use flow log records and other scenario details to diagnose network issues.

Hybrid and multi-cloud connectivity

Candidates assess ways to connect cloud networks with data centers and other clouds.

Question formats

Multiple choice

The candidate: Reads a short situation, table or statement and picks the right answer, or every right answer.

You see: Whether the candidate knows the material well enough to apply it, not just recognize it.

15 questions in 10 minutes, served one at a time.

Roles this test fits

Network architects, cloud solutions architects, network security engineers, DevOps and platform engineers, and network operations staff who build or run networks on Amazon Web Services.

A focused signal for network hiring

See scenario reasoning
Review choices about address plans, route tables, policies, flow log records and connection designs, beyond what a resume lists.
Scratch paper for address math
Every candidate may use scratch paper, so address plan calculations reflect network reasoning rather than mental arithmetic speed.
Reasoning over recall of limits
Questions test how networks behave rather than recall of service limits or recently added features, so the result reflects design and diagnosis judgment.

Test integrity signals for review

Each candidate receives a different set of questions drawn from large pools. Questions appear in a different order for each attempt, and answer options are shuffled. The browser shows one question at a time; answer keys stay on HireValid’s servers. The 10-minute timer runs on the server, so reloading restores the same question with only the time left. Candidates cannot return to earlier questions. Question text cannot be copied or selected, and a blocked copy attempt is recorded in the timeline. Personal invitation links expire, and a finished test cannot be taken again. HireValid summarizes signals such as time away from the test tab, pastes into answers and answers faster than a question can be read in an Integrity Score with an evidence timeline for employer review. It does not decide on its own.

Use the score as evidence

Review the score alongside a work sample and a structured interview, never on its own. For a work sample, ask candidates to review a fictional address plan or route table and explain their proposed design or diagnosis. Compare related needs with the AWS, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Microsoft Azure tests.

Vragen voor gestructureerde sollicitatiegesprekken

How would you plan addresses and routes for a new cloud network?
Listen for a clear design rationale and attention to how the network should connect.
How would you investigate an unexpected traffic flow using network records?
Look for a step-by-step diagnosis that uses the available evidence.
How would you choose a connection between a cloud network and a data center?
Listen for tradeoffs and a reasoned choice of connection design.

Fairness and accommodations

Scenarios use fictional companies and plain technical English, with no idioms, local knowledge or region-specific details beyond what the work needs. Questions test reasoning about how networks behave rather than recall of service limits or recently added features, and product names appear only where the work itself uses them. Scratch paper is allowed for every candidate so address calculations do not depend on mental arithmetic speed.

You can give any candidate extra time as an accommodation. Results are evidence for a person to review, never an automatic decision.

Provisional: reliability is reported once 200 candidates have completed it.
