To be honest, so what?

They are the questions they want you to answer, just answer them. Use a bit of creative licence and put in the answer what you want them to know about you. Politicians do it all the time, they get asked a question about A, they start their answer with 'well there are two things here...' and proceed to tell the interviewer about B.

Do the same, 'Can you tell us about your experience with Unity?' 'While on my blah blah course we covered several software applications including Unity. The course led me to a degree in blah blah which has led me to a successful 15 year career with blah company, blah company and more recently blah company where I was head of whiffle sticks and making shit up'

It's almost like you understand the concept of negotiation.

That's great if you can do that. Many of us cannot. I am unable to embellish or obfuscate in that way. I tend to be honest and not to beat around the bush. I have worked with completely useless people who have blagged their way into a job. It's incredibly frustrating having to fix their work for them and carry them. Usually in the contracting world those people do not get their contracts renewed.

A previous manager of mine proudly told me he was proud to have dropped out of design school. He didn't have a f*cking clue, but the problem was people in marketing were totally taken in by him...

"Andy, can you provide this hi-res with 3mm bleed, all crops and in CMYK?"

"Nope. It's a web page."

"But XXX said..."

I completely get it, the problem is you just see it is me posting something and immediately feel compelled to disagree or have a go.

If I thought I could do the job, then I would negotiate my way in to it, even discuss the fact the I can't do something and immediately offer a development solution because all companies like to develop their people. I would not go in with an unrealistic demand and negotiate my way down to pretty much the same job I do now for an extra grand a year.

So lying like a politician in a job interview would be your advice?

Not really my style.
Using my obviously made up model answer as a template. Which bit would be a lie?

You went to Uni, you got a degree, you have have experience across different applications, you have experience in employment. All completely accurate from what you have said.

The iffy bit was the actual software application, 'I don't have much experience with Unity, but I have accessed a beginners Unity course on their website, and worked through their free modules, and to be honest it is pretty similar to other applications I am used to so all good there. I am also happy to attend further training if you think I need more. Can I ask what exactly the development programme is like in BodgeIT Software limited?'

Oh, and the actual link to Unity free training on their website is (hopefully) here

My bold is where they'd politely ask me to leave. The only similarity is that it's computer software.
