Question 1
Describe a time when you dealt with a difficult teammate
Flew me to Boston for an interview. Met with 4 people. Asked standard questions about experience and behavioral situations. Asked some retail math questions and showed excel chart and asked you to solve and interpret data. After the interview, I never heard back from the company, never even emailed me to say I didn’t get the job.
