Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is the difference between verification and validation?
It was a very dry interview. Interviewers seemed very uninterested and was being forced to interview which made the interview uncomfortable. One interviewer even sighed when it was my turn to ask questions about the role.
I applied online. I interviewed at Medtronic (Brooklyn Center, MN) in June 2025
Interview
Initial HR screening. Was quick but good way to segway into the next parts of the interview process. Gave me a really good opportunity to get to know more about the role before meeting the team.

Question 1
They asked if *salary range* was within my range in order to not waste anyone time.
STAR scenarios. Straight forward scenarios brought up with classic questions. A certain amount of technical questions as well as motivation for going for the role. Overall a very clear and concise interview with a 30 minute duration
