QA Manual / Functional Interview Prep & Rubrics

Test design craft, STLC vocabulary, defect management, and the judgement scenarios that separate testers from clickers.

The loop, in order

  1. QA & Testing36 questions · 13 topicsThe full QA spectrum kept deliberately separate: manual craft, automation engineering, and performance testing are different interviews with different rubrics.
  2. Business Analysis21 questions · 7 topicsRequirements craft for BA and functional-consultant roles, where the interview tests elicitation and precision rather than technology.
  3. Behavioural & Culture Fit25 questions · 8 topicsThe round candidates most often under-prepare, treated as a skill with structure rather than small talk, including the rubric interviewers score against.
  4. HR, Screening & Offer19 questions · 6 topicsThe recruiter and HR rounds that gate the technical loop and decide your compensation, where most candidates improvise and lose money.

mediumBehaviouralCase Study

You are asked to bring a real piece of your own work and talk through it. What do you choose, and what do you have to be ready to admit?

Choose a work sample with real decisions in it that you still understand line by line and are allowed to share. Be ready to admit which parts were other people's or a tool's, what is wrong with it, and what you would change, because the interviewer can open any file and ask why it is there.

Yes, once and briefly, with an assumption attached. In a hypothetical product exercise the scored move is what follows. Separate gaps that change the design from gaps that do not, choose assumptions that keep the problem hard, write them where both of you can see them, and say which parts of the design depend on each.
