PTC Creo Interview Questions | Questions Related to Creo

PTC Creo Parametric is a highly robust 3d product design software package offering cutting edge competitive tools to suit precise requirements of the current industrial scenario. Back in the early 2000s, it was quite painful when it comes to learning Pro/Engineer Wildfire not to mention the ‘not so flexible’ nature of it’s user-interface and contextual menus.

However, as I always say “Learning PTC Creo is nothing but a logical collection of critical observations”.

I recall the day when I posted the same quote on Facebook on the 28th  of October in 2015. I was never that happy about a like on my Facebook post but coming from the official page of PTC creo it was huge. Five years of teaching creo was enormous fun and fear both. I’ll definitely get into the details some other day. 

For now, I’m posting few questions that I feel are very essential for anyone who is into learning Creo or preparing for college viva or looking for work as a CAD tutor. These are the most basic as well as an intermediate set of questions whose answers are expected from anyone who has learnt PTC Creo by heart. Learning such diverse and complex tool involves concentration to such an extent that one believes there’s always a way to sort that ‘regeneration failure’ and other kind of things that are considered as heartbreaking kind of things. 😁

Here are some of those questions.
