Question 1
Can you walk me through a recent project where you troubleshot a technical issue, and what tools or approach you used to resolve it
Very bad and hard. They asked many questions which you need to be prepared enough to solve. Most questions were about power engineering and which I was not quite experienced.
Questions about my background. Describe previous challenges. What you could do better to improve the development process. Questions about experience with co-workers and how I settled disputes. Personal questions about where I'm from and what are my hobbies.
