The next phone interview was with a manager in the organization that has the open position. This interviewer's accent was very thick, I work with people from all over the world with all kinds of accents and I had to have him repeat questions two or three times just to understand what the question was generally about - I was only picking up every other word - which makes a phone interview extremely difficult. I explained early in the interview that I had managed 40+ people in 5 different teams and some projects I did not technically work myself, but if he had a technical question I could go as deep as they wanted to go. He proceeded to ask me about a very specific project and immediately fixated on what the database synch-rates were as I walked through this project that I managed.
