Question 1
Describe a situation when you had to work under a lot of stress. What was the outcome?
How do you deal with conflict?
I participated in an initial interview, then three interviews with the team and a final round which included a task. I had to prepare an executive summary and a PPT presentation within 48 hours. The HR team and the bid management team we're very open about their work and why working for the company was a plus. The interviewing process was quick.
