It was hard to gauge what the interviewer had in mind in the PM round. I was informed it was to be a virtual face to face, and it was surprising why the interviewer never turned on his/their camera. Coming to questions, seems like he did not have anything set on his mind and was randomly asking questions. He mentioned he too was recruited only a few weeks ago and was now looking for someone to work under him in the team. And I am not sure what he was expecting cos of his confused nature on the process and what was to be expected out of me.
