Tell me about your previous job experiences.
Why do you want to work at HP? Can you relocate? Would you want assistance relocating? Minimum salary expectation.

I was repeatedly asked technical questions despite the job not requiring me to be technical. The managers clearly doubted my ability to do the job solely because I was not technical, despite having experience in managing technical staff before.

For a technical question, they started with a simple problem of managing a library, asking me about design trade-offs and technology choices.
How would I handle prioritization in the face of limited resources and a lot of needs?
Scrum teams or pods were described as meeting 5 of 20 a point metric in completing expected work during two week sprints. I do not know if the performance shortfalls were discussed in daily standups. I do not know if there were reflections at the end of a sprint. This scenario was described then the question posed: how would you improve performance? After this being asked the third time, I finally replied "well three strikes and you are out I suppose." Frustrating. But then to key to the performance issues fell in place -- for me. Perhaps the question should have been: tell me how to solve this, then you can go on your way. :-)
How can you define the success of the release?
