You may be presented with role-play situations in which you have to address how you would handle a difficult client, artist, or design. Employers will also be interested in your style of work, so bring your portfolio to talk about your best pieces. In addition to seeking someone with analytical, creative, and interpersonal skills, employers are looking for candidates who are technologically savvy, so be sure to talk about your expertise in computers ."

The question were heavily political. After answering and trying to stay as high level as possible, she continued to probe making me very uncomfortable. One question was: There has been a lot of political activity in the news, what are your thoughts on that? She was digging about how I felt about the gay marriage decision from the Supreme Court. Why did you apply here? What do you know about us? She asked me 2 questions relating to my actual experience - one about graphic design (software) skill (not mentioned in the posting) and another around the most strategic project I worked on. When I asked her 2 quick questions she was very high level so I knew she had decided they were not going forward.
