While initial contact was pleasant, the time required (on their side) to set up the interview was excessive, given that they asked me to apply for the specific position (my resume was on file). From initial contact to interview was roughly a month. The panel interview was actually a single questioner with three other "listeners" on the panel - and no one on the panel was able to provide me with their business cards (not that they didn't have any with them, but none of the "interviewers" had ever been issued business cards, based on their statements, leading me to believe that none of them were managers).

They questioned me extensively about my past work, stressing technical questions rather than managerial/people skills.

Give an example of where you had to coach a subordinate.
