I define difficult questions as ones where I end up rethinking my answers over and over after the interview. For me, one such question was "What would your first 90 days look like here?" I felt that my answer was very canned and after I left, I thought, "Why didn't I talk about this or that?" It's a deep question and one that I'm hesitant to pre-think about too much because every situation is different. It was literally one of the first questions I got so I had very little time to apply PagerDuty context to my answer.

Recruiter screen: * Why are you looking to change jobs? Do you have any deadlines? Why Duolingo? Going over resume to talk about kinds of projects you worked on. Team sizes, kinds of technologies used etc. Hiring Manager screen: * Similar to recruiter screen. Go over your resume to discuss about projects you worked on: team size, technologies etc, Technical interview: * They provided the area they will interview about before the interview was scheduled. I was given authentication and account creation. During the interview, had to walk through the system design that was provided to me by the interviewer for different scenarios. Add to the system design for different scenarios. Panel interviews * Standard tell me a time when questions (most of them where repetitive between the different interviews) Tell me a time when you had to start a new process or optimize an existing process Tell me a time when you had to resolve a conflict How do you keep track of dependencies? How do you manage risks?
