Was asked totally trivial questions about Java, SQL, and black-box testing during a courteous 1-hour 1:1 interview.
Returned for a planned 4-hour interview in software testing, expecting programming and puzzle questions. Was asked absolutely nothing relevant to testing and software verification during the initial 45-minute period by a quirky and non-technical "program manager" who obviously had not read my resume at all. As best I could figure from his mindless babbling, the questions concerned estimating the priority of testing various drop-boxes and check-boxes in a GUI application that he was barely able to even describe. The remainder of the interview didn't even take place. I departed and refused to shake the interviewer's hand upon leaving.
Sample questions concerning Java or SQL.
