Noor had prepared extensively for the interview, rehearsing answers to questions she assumed would test her qualifications thoroughly.Noor se había preparado a fondo para la entrevista, ensayando respuestas a preguntas que suponía que pondrían a prueba sus cualificaciones de manera exhaustiva.

Halfway through, she noticed the interviewer describing the workplace culture in vague, almost defensive terms whenever pressed for specifics.A mitad de la conversación, notó que el entrevistador describía la cultura laboral en términos vagos y casi defensivos cada vez que le pedía detalles concretos.
