The same day of the phone screen I had an interview scheduled within about 3 business days. My interview was with department manager and one team member. Interviewers were very professional and pleasant. Interview was same day as this survey so no job offer.

Question 1
The questions were very straight forward STAR formal questions. Describe a time when you had to work with a project team, what was the project and what was the outcome?

Rate your knowledge of renewable energy.
