Senior Manager Software Testing and Quality Assurance Interview Experience - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Process
I was explained there would be one or a maximum of two interviewees. I was on holiday, traveling to Cambodia, when I got the call from the recruiter.
The interview was scheduled pretty quickly. The interviewer was a British person working in Singapore.
As expected, the questions were sensible and there was no nonsense. I liked it overall. However, I had little or almost no background in Trade. I am more of a technical manager in Performance Testing and Test Automation with experience in retail banking and financial applications. My knowledge in trade was naive. He asked me to explain the trade lifecycle, which I could not speak much about.
Later, I was not rejected but nor made an offer. I was kept waiting and followed up for a month, but received no acceptance or rejection.
Questions
Explain the trade life-cycle.
