There was a post here the other day about technical questions for MF REPE which reminded me I have a Quizlet of technical questions I’ve come across over time. I’m hoping to add to it - so what are some difficult technical/conceptual questions you’ve been asked in an interview (along with the answer)? I’ll share the Quizlet once it’s finished and maybe it can be a good resource for those prepping for interviews.

One time someone asked me to do math in my head. I told him to give me his lunch money. Absolute nerd.
i truly respect your apparent professional success coupled with wso participation/response time. aspirational.
For perspective, at the moment I am sitting in an airport hung over about to board a flight that I don’t get reimbursed for until we close, or paid at all for that matter, which is looking more and more like 3 months from now at best instead of 1. Last night, an 80 year old woman held up a sign against me saying “Save the 300 lives” and I genuinely have no idea what that is about.
Sometimes, the internet is bliss.
