Answer general tech questions Product - Discuss approach to customer, prior projects, how you ensure product is involved/considered Management - Discuss how you handle high/poor performance, how do you communicate with the team, how do you coach the team in terms of process

Had an "informal chat" about softer side of role, followed by a technical task. Feedback on Interview task was inaccurate - was critiqued for not having a unit test for a scenario that was unit tested. Also critiqued for having too many unit tests, some tests described as "obscure" because they swallowed an exception (in order to test a specific part of the classes responsibility without over-engineering the setup). The weighting of the role was advertised as a manager-heavy role. Wasn't offered the role based on opinionated feedback based on the technical task, which as I have explained was inaccurate.
