What were the most difficult or unexpected interview questions asked?:
I was applying to the financial department at that time. During the one-on-one interview with a vice president from Treasury, I was asked technical questions on Foreign Exchange and associated risks. I was also asked the major duties of Treasury which I could not answer in details.
One unexpected and easy question was "do you know where is our headquarter located?" I think it is because I am weak in technical questions so the VP just asked me basic questions. This is definitely a must-know answer.

How did you answer each of these questions (please be specific)?:
One senior asked about my past internship experience in a Finance department. I told her I had been assisting in annual budgeting process for a few months in details. It seems she had done similar task before so we chatted a lot.
I was also asked a lot behavioral questions that how would I act in different situations. For instance, if I don't agree with what my boss / senior do, what will I do? What is my greatest achievement? Basically I answered in a "real" manner and shared with the interviewer my own experiences.
