At this interview, we talked about this being a job that involved editing, so I thought it was odd that they didn't test my editing skills. This was a red flag to me, that the interview question below was the only kind of "test" they did. In fact, the manager said, "Good enough for me." I had just left a job that administer a four-page editing test based on the Chicago Manual of Style, and that company immediately ruled out applicants that received a score under a B. At EMC, they basically took my word for it that I was an editor.
We talked equally about my editing and project management experience. And, by the way, this was NOT an editing job. They misled me about that, and I left the second day on the job after finding out that I would not be editing. I have a lot of project management experience, and I think they told me it was an editing job during the interview so that I would take the job. In truth, it was entirely a project management job.
The tone of the interview was casual and friendly. I met with the manager and the lead Production Editor. They spoke equally. It felt like a conversation. We met in a boardroom.
They were short on details about the day-to-day requirements of the position, which I realized at the time was a red flag. It definitely turned out a huge red flag, because they were misleading me about the ultimate complete lack of editing in the position, despite what they said in the interview.
