The rule is
"Always answer questions with confidence, even if you’re lying"
Interview folks love to ask tough questions to see what kind of answer you’re going to give. So give an answer with confidence. The actual answer you give, whether in front of a group or talking one on one, is much less important than how you say it. Make something up if you have to. And when people try to confuse you, saying " Are you sure" Be confident and say yes!!
Well a friend of mine is in a turbomachinery company where the top management are not very conversant with the technical topics, but still when they are interviewing someone they toss some difficult technical questions and check how the candidate handle them. So just take this advice. What ever be the question. If they doubt you on an answer, be confident and stick to your answers.
One of the most common questions I got when in NAL was, “What’s the work you did in NAL?” The truth is that in a NAL, i did so many things from programming to analysis to designing, but that answer can only get you in trouble. So one day I will say I do design and analysis and the next day I will say that I did programming. Both answers are right, but I’m much better off giving one simple answer and saying it with confidence.
