5. Tools and process for UAT, Test Document or report and Bug tracking.

I am evaluating you based on your understanding of the above PM problems you are tackling and your ability to understand the position your team has taken.

Question 1:

Discuss the process you followed when finalizing your choice of technology platform? Did you utilize and test the platforms ( with free access ) and then make a decision? How can companies improve their testing process?

Question 2 :

What is the biggest challenge facing project communications in a virtual environment? Would your project presentation be much easier if you were ALL in-person?

Question 3 :

How will you demonstrate ROI on your selected software?

Question 4 :

Discuss the importance of a project manager in a technical, software development project? If the PM has no technical knowledge, what value does this role bring?

Question 5 :

Do you agree with your choice of project? Would you change anything?
