As a reputable company, Pinterest takes its software maintenance processes seriously, and your interviewer is looking to hear that you are familiar with the four different types of software maintenance. Talk to your interviewer about any work you have done in the past with corrective, adaptive, perfective, and/or preventative software maintenance. Use specific examples and ensure that your interviewer walks away from your conversation, knowing that you understand the importance of proper system maintenance.

"Being familiar with all four types of software maintenance, my most used method of maintenance in my current role is corrective. Based on bug reports from end-users, I work through coding and logic issues to resolve issues quickly and effectively. In the maintenance I perform, I never hesitate to pick up the phone and contact customers to hear firsthand about what they are experiencing. By doing this, they feel like they are an important part of the process, and it reflects well on my organization and me."
