Hi Ray
It all depends on what they want out of you and how the company system is set up. What sort of company is it?
I started by editing flow diagrams for breweries on AutoCAD Release 9 (14 yrs ago
). Also editing site-plans etc.
They may ask you if you are familiar with using different layers, line thicknesses, paperspace/modelspace, viewports, 3D!!
I'm sure if it's your first proper full-time job they will provide assistance. As long as you can open up drawings and do some minor editing to start with I think you'll be fine.
Definately take samples. Most companies like to see proof of your own work.

Thanks Nick for the reply
The company development and design Traffic Management and Enforcement Systems (speed cameras)
They use AutoCAD and CADKey. The problem is that I am a Designer not a CAD operator so hopefully they will let me do some designing aswel (any way need to get the job first)

Once you get the job redesign the layout of the road and point the cameras towards trees instead of cars
Good luck with the interview
