  • It’s really not that bad, both interviews are nearly identical, and both sites provide all the study material necessary. If you really want to get sneaky, you an look up the questions in advance. You get a reasonable time to answer, and an unlimited number of attempts. OPS I passed immediately, RED failed me the first time but passed the second. 50-60% of the answers I had no clue about before reading the study material. The worst part is waiting for an interviewer / the queue to get a test, but they’ve got systems to keep your place in queue as well.


  • I’ve been deploying and servicing Surface Pro’s since the Pro 3, but now that I really think about it, I’ve never actually handled a Pro 4, just everything else in between.

    Through all the comments I’ve noticed you don’t appear to have tried the “hard reset” procedure yet? Any time our Surfaces have gotten funky, a hard reset usually kicks them in the butt for a few months until another wonky issue crops up. Your delay to power on sounds just like some of the wonkyness I’ve experienced but moved on from after 15 seconds of button presses. Hold power and volume up for 15 seconds.

    I still have my Pro 3, I also have a Pro 5 and Pro 7. My Pro 3 still gets 6.5 hours on the battery, they’re not without their problems but it’s often how you treat them.

    I’ve sold and supported hundreds. I’ve only had one come back after someone was unable to follow my instructions above. I was able to perform the above and resold it the next day.
