Pretty standard things but it was clear they didn't review my resume as they asked me things as if what I would be doing there would be a challenge and were surprised at my responses to the point I checked my resume after to make sure I did in fact put XYZ on there-and did. Be respectful of serious candidates time.

Many of our largest member companies, including in the tech, airline and biotech space, have committed to get to net-zero, often with aggressive timelines. While they are global companies, they have significant operations in California. Ironically, while California has professed a vigorous commitment to carbon reduction, in reality these companies are having a much more difficult time getting their California fleets, campuses and facilities to decarbonize here than in states that are vigorously opposed to decarbonization. California just makes it so hard to do anything, even when it accomplishes a shared goal with companies that want to decarbonize. How would you propose to assemble our related members, determine the right course of action, create and build a coalition, and work to secure changes in California to make it significantly easier for our members to decarbonize?
