It really doesn't matter because interview questions are and should be specific 
to that environment.
My environment uses NetBackup only for the Wintel machines. A variety of other 
apps/programs are used for the other OSes present here. If I were to interview 
someone I'd want to ask them NBU questions as it pertains to Windows and 
Exchange since that's what matters to my environment.

Getting to the topic:
Maybe asking some questions about off-site copies/vaulting and DR in general.
