4,425 technical consultant interview questions shared by candidates

I asked the questions. Maybe not what recruiters expect but it saves time. I acknowledge that I asked with quite a bit of confirmation bias, having dealt with companies growing through M&A and slotted AHEAD into that bucket. What percentage of your growth is M&A vs. Organic? "I don't know the exact percentage. I'm sure it's a good amount. I can follow up because I am curious about the answer, too." Conversation about the role of the PTC. Informed that PTC is the "highest technical position without becoming a manager." I asked about the path for people who have no interest in line management. There is no defined path for PTC. Suggestion that SA might be a better fit. I asked questions about how the PTC/SA collaborates when reviewing the SOW and resource plan. Sounded like the Solutions Architect might be involved but it sounded like the SA isn't required to understand delivery and product capabilities at a deep enough level to avoid pitfalls. I asked about the relationship between the BPC and the PTC when it comes to gathering and framing requirements. Sounded like a throw it over the wall relationship. It was not clear to me whether the BPC collects requirements or is also consultative in aligning expectations around the product capabilities.
