One question in the technical interview was "How many basketballs could fit in this room", I liked this question, it was clearly meant to judge my reasoning/problem solving skills. Another was "How many windows are in Limerick", and i did not like this one as much, was less clear what the point of this one was as it's impossible to get this one accurate and in my opinion there aren't really any good ways to go about figuring this one out.
