Alright I'm done. My brain is mush. For the IT initiated I can now create file shares for roaming user profiles and everything you need to be able to do before you get to that step. And also do moderate level GPO stuff. I can't wait to see what a normal companies OU looks like and how many GPO they have.

Before I started on Saturday, I knew pretty much nothing about AD except for what it was used for.

I hope it works for my interview tomorrow!

If you want to combine what you've learned but make it a bit more modern/fancier, have a look at FSLogix Profile Containers. It's just setting up file shares and creating a GPO but has one extra step which is installing an agent.

Probably an hour maximum and you get to add another skill to your arsenal.

There are a bunch of YouTube videos which run through it available too if you prefer that over doco.

I just saw your interview is tomorrow.. ok it might be a little late in the evening now.

I've been working inside enterprise level active directory for a long long time and if you get the basics of GPO, filtering, policy ordering that's a great start. GPO loopback is pretty important to know about in complex environments too.

Thank you will definitely have a look! Would love to keep adding skills to my toolkit. There will be plenty of interviews in the future
