Few regular HR questions, including 1) difficult time I faced at work, and how I have handled that, 2) introducing myself, etc. All other questions were very sensible, mature and reasonable - asked to pick up a few of my tasks, and describe my role in accomplishing the goals. I was also asked general questions about hash map, its usage in real life, and the complexity of storing and retrieving a value.
