User Interview Questions

9,400 user interview questions shared by candidates

Phone interview: purely about my interests. Was asked questions such as "what brand do you admire and why?" On-Site interview: The questions were unique to my presentation and was asked to apply that to something at Microsoft. For example, I showed an interest in animation, so I was asked to apply that to MS Excel, or how that could help improve X feature in Excel.

I was interviewing for a UX job and I was asked how I design a storage redundancy system for a data center. It wasn’t really a hard question but stood out because it had nothing to do with UX or general work experiences.

The personality interviews were very standard (tell us about your experience, what are your strengths, tell me about a time you...), but the technical interviews were not standard. The first round was actually crazy it was a scenario that was so far out of left field and not related to UX, I am pretty sure it was something like what would you do if you were tiny and stuck in a blender, etc.
