I'd had great sessions with several people at the company where I was interviewing, and the final one was with the VP of the department in which I'd be working. Several times, the other interviewers had told me that the company was 'high energy' and I'd have to deal with a lot of uncertainty.

The VP asked me, "How do you deal with ambiguity?"

I responded, "I'm not sure what you mean. Can you explain?"

We both laughed. I got the job.
