ADAM Architecture interview questions

Interview was described as an informal chat to get to know eachother before a later formal interview. This was not the case. It was very formal. Had to present portfolio while asked questions and quizzed on construction details to test architectural knowledge. When I got to the section on my university work I was told that they didn't need to see that as essentially it's all just aesthetic and not considered as valuable to them. They were very serious and intense, not welcoming and didn't want to get to know eachother outside of testing architectural knowledge.

Two stage interview process. Technical focus on detailing, some focus on JCT contracts, and questions relating to passion for and knowledge of classical architecture. Quite formal but with the usual conversational architect tone.
