                      Hello guys, I applied as Chemical engineer in a big company and I did with them all the interview steps (last one on 05/09/23), at the time of the interview there was no job opening and I got the interview through another division. Last week I received an email saying that they will let me know their final decision by the end of this week. Today I have received an email (with the job description attached) scheduling a call in few days for sharing the decision. Do they want to reject me on call?

                      I have an interview on monday as a product specialist- medical capability report. Any tips about how to answer if they ask about skills needed for the job? I have not had an interview in a year so any advice would help.
