Question 1
As you know recently Samsung Note 7 has been recalled due to faulty batteries which result in huge loss of the company, if you were the company's CEO what steps would you have took in this case.
Fair behavioral question and ask about relevant job experience. The overall process is smooth and the interviewer is easy going. Take some time to prepare for company related questions and you should be fine.
Interview with the Hiring manager was chill but he did not really ask anything about my background nor how I would fit the role.
Instead he asked me some brain teasers, which caught me off guard a little.
