Their interview process signals their strengths and bullshit. You also signal to them things which have to filtered correctly. Also, interviewing is partly arbitrary hazing to make incumbents feel valuable. Five is not very many interviews at all. 30 would be significant. In good interviewing, much more time is wasted to have many more offers. If you're going for instant respect, wage slavery is the wrong port to chat up. It's always earned over time by demonstrating invaluable performance as useful to the current business "growing pains." Finally, the usual standards: positive, hygiene (no nasty ear, nose, neck hair), fit, energetic, quick, confident and dressed impeccably. And, all the usual canned answer "brain teasers" which are Glugglable. Perhaps tactfully-suggesting how such arbitrary mental fappenings apply to the job without pointing out how they are often ineffective shortcuts which may make the interviewer feel superior. Oh joys of big ol' corporations and their bloat and waste.
