      "Computerized maintenance systems vary between companies and the military had its own systems. The foundry didn't have a formal system for tracking maintenance and I started building one for them, just an excel sheet, since I was the one both tracking and doing most of the work. Since I started with _____ we've changed software twice and I've had to learn proprietary control software from Japanese manuals technical specifications and schematics. I'm fairly confident that I can learn any system that you use."

      Stephanie's Feedback

      This is a thorough and well-crafted response. It sounds like you would be comfortable adopting any new systems that are presented to you! (It's okay to just say "I'm confident" instead of "I'm fairly confident.") Confidence makes a big difference during an interview!
