Managerial interview was more of discussion about my architecture experience, my architecture deliverables, the kind of projects I had undertaken and the challenges I faced. The technical interview was very technical, and questions were asked in various categories like performance tuning, high availability configuration, integration with different products, database set up and configuration.

The interviewer appeared Technical Architect and relied on general scenario based questions which were either deliberately tried to muffled or he was handicapped in articulation . While replying , I tested him by also specifying how its done in my technology and was caught when he misunderstood/confused terms for 'configuration' , constructs , IDE etc used in the COTS product. My fault was that I lost my patience and became loud-mouthed and sarcastic , even started cross-questioning. While I don't blame the interviewer , I think HR/Management should at least be transparent with senior people when all other companies are upfront and candid about normal queries.
