Behavioral Technical

So, the interview started with them wanting to know about my education and qualifications, especially my experience in [mention your field]. Then they asked stuff about my past projects, like how I did them and what happened. They also asked about a research paper I wrote and how it could be used in real life. A big thing they asked was how I'd solve problems and stay efficient if the systems were offline, you know, with the limitations. I told them how I'd use my analytical skills and be resourceful to deal with that, focusing on keeping data safe and finding other ways to solve problems.
