Question 1
how did you overcome an difficult situation? and example
Only one round of interviews which was nice and straightforward. Generic interview questions, nothing specific pertaining to the position. Seems like they followed the company's interview rubric. Be prepared to list examples and go in-depth.
It was about a 30 minute interview. Standard questions. Example: Tell me about a time when you went out of your way for a customer. What are your strengths and opportunities.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you went out of your way for a customer.
Traditional, typical, and fairly informal. Quick and efficient, but got plenty of opportunity to ask questions. The only drawback was that I had to travel to a different location to hold the interview.
