Many questions were very standard, One of the questions I remember was asking to give an example of risk management in the previous job(s). The interview was not particularly difficult, but the fact that it was not a conversation, but rather collecting of the responses made it more impersonal. A conversation with the hiring manager would have been better, but I guess they do such screenings.
