    Help with Database Assistant Job Description

    With the new website, I'm a little lost... In the past I knew where to look for old posting and "samples" of helpful documents...

    Can anyone tell me where I might find sample Job Descriptions or appropriate interview questions for the position of Database Assistant or the like?

    THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ANY ASSISTANCE! Sincerely, Sarah
