Question

Information Security

They set me the task of finding us a reverse engineer for mobile applications.
Finding something is not very easy, let alone interviewing ... And then the tech lead went into a binge and does not answer. And who to dig?

To my great regret, on a Google request for "top 5 questions for a reverse engineer of mobile phones" I am shown a reproductive organ from links to "how to become a reverse engineer" and everything else. My dear colleagues would like to help, but the profile is not theirs.
Asking standard questions, as easy as it is for mobile application developers, seems not very incorrect.

Job requirements include: knowledge of Android and ios architecture; sast, dast, iast, java, swift, kotlin, python, c/c++, encryption, obfuscation for mobile platforms, Wireshark experience, SSL Pinning)

What five questions can I record in a video and show the tech lead after they get off their binge?

Answer 1

1) latest version of burp suite
2) which mitm proxy used and how it masked
3) how sslstrip works

PROFIT!!!

Answer 2

Asking standard questions, as easy as it is for mobile app developers, doesn't seem very correct.

Quite correctly, a reverse engineer must be a good developer, with an in-depth understanding of the platform architecture and debugging.
Well, without a technical specialist, video answers are not the best thing. For according to the answers, a good specialist immediately understands what additional question to ask in order to make sure that the candidate understands what he is talking about.

Answer 3

As an option, read the article https://habr.com/en/company/kaspersky/blog/203228/ .
But if no one understands anything in the reverse, then you will not be able to adequately check a person on several issues, especially since you noticed a specific area.

java, swift, kotlin, python, c/c++

Do you really think that someone really uses so many languages?
