Just had a second interview with a large company. Although they called it the first interview. Guess I'm not the worst engineer at maths after all.
Anyway, beforehand - quite a few days beforehand - I spent time researching the company and reading advice on how to interview with them. The company itself, in their guidelines, stressed not to answer hypothetically - they want to know your real experience - not how you would deal with things.
I'm ready.
Come the interview the very pleasant interviewer starts nearly every question with "Hypothetically how would you deal with the following situation ...".
And I answered "Well actually that situation did occur and this is how I dealt with it".
I'm beginning to suspect I'm too experienced (not old - experienced) for this position.
