Tried to erase all content from my MacBook Pro so I could trade it in. I couldn’t use erase assistant so I had to reset, command-r in order to access disk utility. I deleted the volume and now I am getting a flashing question mark symbol on a file every time I try to start in up. What do I do now?
The "flashing question mark" icon means there is no operating system installed. If you just want to trade it in you don't need to reinstall macOS. Just shut it down.
For reference: If your Mac starts up to a question mark - Apple Support
