>>The Acquisition Chad (Remaining 15%)
>Works in the department he's hiring for, or has previously worked in it
This guy is looking for someone to work alongside him. Not the "statistically best hire"/best gossip buddy, like the previous one. Don't impress with too much skill unless you can back it up, he might and probably will ask more in-depth questions about stuff you bring up.
>Only recruits because he's proven himself in the organization
Probably still has an interest and intimate knowledge of the department, only recruits either because he's paid more, got bored and wanted to rotate or because he's some sort of manager.
>Asks relevant questions
Might present a light theoretical but still realistic situation to solve, and can provide more details if you ask for them (i.e. it'll be a question with basis in reality, and some realistic context). Might ask something directly technical, probably light enough that you should know it as a minimum for the job you're applying for.
>Wants to make sure you fit in
He knows what the place is like, and wants to make sure that you fit the place, rather than just him as an interviewer. For example: Doesn't ask if you're a "team player", but presents a theoretical task as part of a group, and if you'd handle it.

DON'T:
>Don't be too truthful
A few white lies are still needed if you're like me (consistently under-value yourself). But don't go too far, or you'll risk him actually knowing something about the subject and lite-grilling you on it.
>Don't tell him about a bunch of random shit
You're there to interview for the position. If he wants to know, he'll ask. Don't be too brief either, though, when he does ask.

WEAKNESS:
>A good ability to give plausible explanations WHY you're lacking in certain areas, and a good handshake
Not the boomer type, the "I'm not a slouch"-type. "Man-to-man" conversations are officially banned by feminist SHARIAH law, but that's what you're aiming for.
