Been asked that too. For a random bar job too and took me far too long to answer.

Still got the job though >.>

"What is the most technical problem you've ever solved?"

It was the kind of question I was prepared for but I gave totally the wrong answer.

"In a lab I did in college, I was designing a processor at register transfer level, and there was a problem whenever I would synthesize the models that caused it to skip a cycle during an instruction, seemingly at random. Just to be sure, I swapped the the FPGA's 50MHz oscillator from its 25, and turns out it was actually a problem with the FPGA I had been assigned."

It was an honest answer but judging by the looks they gave me, presumably they were looking for "one time I changed the screensaver on a computer."

I've no idea at all. It's just nonsense likely designed to see how you think on the spot, I guess.

"Why do you want to work here?"

Fuck you, I want money, that's why. That's always the reason, except I have to make up bullshit instead of being honest and saying I want more money or better benefits.

Tell me about a time you had a disagreement with a coworker?

I'd never had a job before and I lied about my experience on my resume so I had to make up an eleaborate story on the spot

Tell me your worst quality.

I'm too honest.

I don't think that's a bad quality.

I don't give a fuck what you think!
