Interestingly, I applied for the same job and was asked to draw a
block diagram of Neil.
I didn't get the job....

One time 35-40? years ago, I was applying for an electronic
technician position in Pasadena California. One of the
pre-employment test questions was to draw a block diagram
of a receiver.
As my hobby time back then was amateur radio and I had
been studying the Motorola T44A6A 450-470 Mc (not MHz back
then) receiver.
So, I drew the block diagram of the T44A6A receiver - triple
conversion, walking first and second IF's, 455 Kc third IF
and AFC circuit.
Yes, I did get the job.
