Had a phone interview yesterday, and was recommended for the next level, an in person interview. I was also made aware that I would need to prepare a 3-5 minute presentation, handouts and interviewer participation optional; and had a choice of 5 topics. Have you ever had to prepare a presentation as part of your interview?
