This was a group interview. There were two other candidates in my group. Although it is a group setting, we were asked questions individually. We then responded on our own instead of discussing it as a group.

Self-introduction and reason for interest in the job. Also questioned whether there was prior knowledge with regards to Excel and VBA which is of great advantage to the interviewee.
