Interview Questions
I would not say there were any terribly hard questions that were asked. The hardest one would be probably what is your biggest professional mistake that you've made. I answered with a polished story about during my internship transition and how i did not ask for the password on an application for an ongiong survey. This has made catching the deadline for the european conference 1 week later very hard as the previous interns did not respond to emails during the summer vacation All in all it wasn't the hardest question.
