FSMO roles. What are they and how to move them? If you were an animal, which would you be? What is your biggest team accomplishment? How would you upgrade domain controllers from 2008 to 2016/2019 (not an "in place" upgrade but with new VMs)?

Technical Question: Automating tasks and passing files between VMs. My answer, power-shell scripts and a central storage location was correct but, was not the answer they were looking for. Business: They had several questions about optimal price/time quotes as well as a variety of "explain this to non-technical staff". Different then what I was used to, but those types of events happened on the job quite a bit.
