Do you have any interview tips?

The technical interview involved thinking through a general process flow involving a 3 phase separator, some piping, control valves and process vessels. I was required to think through the process flow and explain what might happen to the products depending on changing certain process conditions. The trick here is to have a sound knowledge of how pressure and temperature affects process flows and to understand basic things like the stratification of a 3 phase mixture of gas-oil-water.
