Element Six interview questions

I was interviewed for a Knowledge (KM) position by De Beers. I had worked in KM for the previous 9 years, introducing into DEBID (later rebranded to Element Six (E6). I had in fact introduced KM into DEBID then into E6, reporting to the Research Director. My job involved managing smallish teams of researchers and similar - in one project I was coordinating team memenders in South Africa, Ireland and Sweden. I went on business trips to Sweden, Ireland and the UK. Again reporting to the E6 Research Director. The Mission Stetement of our company-wide KM drive went something like: "To preserve key E6competencies despite partial or total staff turnover." The "legs" of the KM drive included: IT, Information Technology, Process Improvement, HR and Intellectual property (Patents).

Very specific and fair questions. A good background given into what was required and the inherent culture. Knowledge gaps were explained in great detail so I had no illusions as to what was required. Both interviewees were pleasant and knowledgeable. The end to end process of what is done there was clear.
