Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I went for Enterprise Testing Senior Associate. The person who interviewed me was very well known to me. He worked with me for more than a year at the same level. Asked illogical questions. All hypothetical questions he asked in which I was the one who was getting demoted or denied bonus or increment.
He should not have taken my interview as it was conflict of Interest. 99% of questions was asked by this guy and the other lady in VC only asked 1 general question.
I reported conflict of interest issue to the hiring HR but no action was taken not any reply toy email came.
