Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked smart and practical questions, related to job description. They also included classical questions like what are your strengths, weaknesses, etc. One thing to be careful about: Most of the answers to their questions will be subject to personal review meaning the hiring team have a lot of power in the process.
