I’ve seen similar questions with different wording.

The questions all the prep courses use are "retired" test questions (to the breast of my knowledge) so you'll never see the exact question.

Oops...😂😂😂😂😂

yeah I do think you'll see some version of it

Yes, very similar ones but not exactly the same details. Some of the questions are driven from the previous exams that's why it helps if you read and study previous qustions.

I have been talking to a recruiter for a little over a month about a position. I let her know out the gate that I really wasn’t looking to change jobs, but she just kept wanting to continuing the conversation. I didn’t have 2 interviews with the hiring coming and they know that I am not really looking to make a switch. They are now working on an offer letter and I know they’re going to offer me more money. I’m having my annual review this week. Any advice on how to handle a) job offer b) review?
