Sample Primavera P6 Interview Questions.
If you plan to work as a planner or scheduler, you may expect two major forms of interview.
The first type is an Oral Interview and the 2nd could be a Practical interview.
Some recruiters have been known to use both. In this post, I have given a breakdown of some likely interview questions during an interview.
I have also attached a Primavera P6 Practical exercise for the Practical style interview scenario.
