Hi!

Sometimes they do, when they have time, and sometimes they read it with you in the interview (aka, they ask you to walk him or her through your CV, having it in hand at the same time). That is precisely one of the four families of questions that we find in the FIT part, regardless of them having read your CV or not. 

Hope it helps! Cheers,

Sometimes. Play it safe, dont assume anything and prepare comprehensively. Dont assume that the interviewer will know the details of your CV, so you take the lead. if they ask specific questions, that great otherwise make sure you are in the drivers seat.

It really depends. If the interviewer has been waiting with your CV then there's a good chance they have read it, if not, many will just go in without seeing your CV.

I personally, especially for final round interviews, chose not to read the candidate's CV, partly to avoid unconcious bias. I would typically start the interview by introducing my self (very briefly) and then say "I have your CV here but I haven't read it and so why don't YOU to tell me about yourself...".

Hi there,

Some do some don't, and it really depends on both the interviewer and the kind of day they're having. Importantly though, if they do look at it, it's a 30 second glance. If they don't look at it, when they sit down at the table to interview you, they can pretty quickly figure out what they want to ask about you.

Ultimately, yes, you should be prepared to answer in detail any point on your resume. Whether they've spent 30 seconds beforehand reading it or not, it's very easy to pick out questions to ask.
