First, the interviewer asked me lots of things about my resume such as talk about the project you think it most hard, what if your teammate have different idea with you, talk about an experience that you have influence your teammate... Then, I did some technical questions: Use nand gates, inverters to build nor gate such kinds of things. Design a elevator (verilog/finite state machine) and some follow ups.
