The manager asked a couple of weird questions and he was not pleasant at all. He asked one specific question about k8s running on AWS and he was really stubborn about it this one, something like "How to expand IP’s for k8s clusters EKS on AWS?" - One of the most unconfortable situations I ever had in a interview, no matter what I've told the answer he was pushing until this expand Nodes/IP's - which it's something specific to AWS/cloud environments. Really stubborn guy and he's english was so bad.
