If you are sure of the topic you are asked, provide clear explanation else if you can provide relevant answer as to project you are aware or have some knowledge on the topic.

Onboarding process..etc
Be wise on salary hike negotiation check the standard pay for your role in the organisation, your expectation, your skill and how you attended the interview and how you are needed for the organisation.
