Do a search for you server OS + STIG

Then, for each service you're hosting on that server, do a search for:

Service/Program name + STIG/Benchmark

There's tons of work already done by the vendors in conjunction with the DoD (and CIS) to create lists of potential vulnerable settings that can be corrected before deploying the server.

Along with this, you can usually find scripts and/or Ansible playbooks that will do most of the hardening for you. Though it's a good Idea to understand what you do and do not need done.

Reminds me of Coffee Stain Studio's trailer for the release of Goat MMO Simulator:

So the ones I've seen were a combination of social skills/ emotional intelligence tests and the same type of questions you'd find in an IQ test.

So having a degree shows you have the dedication to see your education through. Having a high GPA can indicate you delivered a consistent and honest effort. But the extra test (especially if it's timed) can show how good you are at quick thinking. One test I took for a job, you would have about 20 seconds to answer each question if you wanted to get through them all.

It can also gauge if you're lazy (you guess your way through most questions just to get through them) or dedicated (take your time to answer each question correctly even if that means you won't get through all 60 or so questions before the 20 minutes are up).

The social skills/emotional intelligence tests (if that's the right name for them) I've seen were basically matching faces to emotions and trying to gauge reactions to events.

So for the "IQ" tests, they want people who are not only educated but swift thinkers (more PC way to say it).

For the social/emotion tests, I've seen where otherwise smart and educated candidates can be grating to other employees and even drive other talent away.

I ran into that situation. I've even personally blacklisted jobs that might be in the same "team" with a specific person at a very big contractor because even if they're brilliant, they're frustrating to work with and have no gauge on how to treat fellow professionals.

I use "team" in quotes because despite there being enough work for 3-4 full time developers, I've only ever seen that one person on that team. After having worked with them, I have a really good idea why.

The worse thing about that whole ordeal was the hypocrisy.

It's the foaming agent toothpastes typically use (sodium laureth sulphate - SLS) suppresses the sweet receptors on our tongues.

When you drink OJ right after, the sweetness is suppressed and you only taste the bitter and other flavors.

Edit: SLS also breaks up lipids that may be blocking bitter taste receptors on your tongue.

Just let it sit for 10-15 minutes, then reward yourself by washing it down with a cup of fresh orange juice.
