My big one is that they need to stop asking why I applied for their company. The real answer is I want a new job, and I blasted out a hundred applications. I didn’t choose your company specifically.

Yeah, that is why I was looking for a job for a year and a half before I landed this gig. I was ruthlessly picky. I am a damn good integration engineer/engineering technologist, and I asked a ton of questions in the three interviews I had in my search. I looked almost every day, applied to maybe 5 jobs, and attended 3 interviews. One job, I was a poor fit for them. One job they were a poor fit for me. The third job was a great fit on both ends, which was awesome because I had wanted to work there for years, but they never had a position open.
Ask. Lots. Of. Questions. Don’t just let them interview you, you both need to interview each other. you both have to live with each other.
