Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked questions from my resume, followed by my troubleshooting and system support skills.
They asked some situational based questions with emphasis on independence.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at PPD (Sofia, ) in Jun 2012
Interview
The interviewers were very professional and the interview was very smooth. They started with a bit of information about themselves and the company which was a great ice-breaker. There are three stages of the interview process (tech test, interview with recruiters and interview with expert in the field you are applying for). Within couple of weeks after the interview I received a call with an offer.
