Did a quick search, lots of threads with tips for the job interviewee but not so many for the interviewer so here goes.

I've just been asked to interview a potential senior Mechanical Engineer tomorrow morning (9:30 PST to be precise).

I've reviewed a good few resumes before and I've done a few interviews before but mostly to assess a particular aspect of someones qualification (such as drafting/GD&T etc.) not just a general 'sit with this guy for 1/2 an hour and get a feel for him to see if you think he'd be a good fit'.

So, any suggestions of the questions you'd ask, or other tips?

I'm not particularly interested in any 'trick' question or anything too 'HRish' but am willing to be persuaded otherwise as to their merit.

Cheers,
