Unfortunately, I don't recall any difficult questions. I normally expect to be challenged during an interview and was amazed that no technical question were asked at any point in the process.

Tell me how you handle conflicts at work.
Not sure if they still use these for entry-level, but they'll ask abstract ideas to get a feel for how you think. For example) What is the US population? Some basics on statistics are also likely to be asked.
I was asked a few times to describe a time when I disagreed with someone on my team or with a client and how I handled the situation
In an undirected connected graph G = (N, A), an Euler tour is a walk that starts at some node, visits each arc exactly once, and returns to the starting node. A graph is Eulerian if it contains an Euler tour. Show that in an Eulerian graph, the degree of every node is even. Next, show that if every node in a connected graph has an even degree, the graph is Eulerian. Establish the second result by describing an O(m) algorithm for determining whether a graph is Eulerian and, if so, will construct an Euler tour. (Hint: Describe an algorithm that decomposes any graph with only even-degree nodes into a collection of arc-disjoint cycles, and then converts the cycles into an Euler tour.)
At the beginning of a dinner party, several participants shake hands with each other. Show that the participants that shook hands an odd number of times must be even in number.
