How do interviewers test Consensus Algorithms?

A typical question, from Blockchain Developer interviews: "Describe the difference between Proof-of-Work (PoW) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus algorithms. What are the main advantages and disadvantages of each?" What the interviewer listens for: The candidate should clearly differentiate PoW's reliance on computational power from PoS's reliance on staked assets. A strong answer will discuss energy consumption, security against 51% attacks, decentralization, and scalability for both. Mixing up their characteristics or failing to mention key trade-offs are red flags.
