When and where was the interview?

Did you actually remember all those questions or you secretly record them?

My dear friend, I have already attended interview on 20th Feb. I was asked about 20 questions, not 60.

Can you please check with your friend whether there was audio/video recording of his interview and whether the interviewer typed all his answers into his laptop/computer ?
