29. As a Machinist, you are required to read blueprints and parts drawings. Tell me about your previous experience with this.
How to Answer
As a machinist, the ability to clearly read blueprints and/or schematics is incredibly important. The interviewer is testing your knowledge so the clearest way to express your level of expertise could be to rate your knowledge from 1-10. Briefly explain to the interviewer that you are familiar with blueprint reading and be sure to mention the amount of years' experience you may have with this.

Answer Example
"In total, I have 6 years' experience with reading blueprints and parts drawings. If I could rate my level of expertise from 1-10, I would rate myself as a 7. There is always more to learn; however, I have a strong existing ability in this department."
