Choose the right perspective
For hands-on configuration questions such as SSO, MFA and Conditional Access, favor people whose own titles name Entra ID or Azure AD or whose notes describe that work at their employer; for architecture and hybrid identity design, favor the lead, principal and architecture roles. Also check whether the Entra ID work sits in a current or past role.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01How did you design Conditional Access and MFA policies in Entra ID so they protected the company without creating constant exceptions?
- 02What went wrong or took longer than expected when moving applications onto Entra ID single sign-on, and how would you sequence it next time?
- 03How do you split identity work between Entra ID and other tools such as Okta or SailPoint, and what drove that choice?
