All real components have real impedance, not just resistance. So at a minimum you'd expect a new EE grad to at least model a resistor as a combination of resistance, capacitance, and inductance, and explain what contributes to each (i.e. a wirewound resistor has more inductance than a bulk metal foil, or something). For veteran industry EEs you'd also expect them to mention things like microphonics, self-heating, thermocoupling, etc.
