When to say Did I answer or have I answered?
If you want to know if you fully answered the question, and would elaborate if you haven’t answered fully you might say “Have I answered your question?” Personally, I’d say “Does that answer your question?” because the emphasis is more on the explanation than on me.
What to answer when interviewer asks what did you do Yesterday?
If “yesterday” was a holiday or a Sunday, the interviewer probably wants to check if you have hobbies or did something really exciting, outside of “work.” I hope it is an opening, warm-up question, until he boots his laptop to keep notes. If you want, you can mention that you prepared for the interview (reading about the company, etc.)
