Engineering Manager Interview Questions

8,519 engineering manager interview questions shared by candidates

Typical SDM questions about architecture/design. In addition questions about people and project management. Scenario based stuff. Felt like it was natural and talking to a colleague. Due to NDA's I won't go into details. If you have played the role before, this is should not be a problem. You don't need preparation. If you know how to build teams, manage challenging projects and have done it in past it will be natural. You can't really prepare for it. Preparation is going to be via your experience.
