Finally, I was given two simple office devices to look at, and describe how they operate, as well as how one is an innovation of the other.

Colloquio
About 20 minutes of belittling and berating me. It was personally the most unenjoyable interview of my career. I would not have accepted anyway, as I was told the office I would work from was not suitable for my circumstances.
