It really depends on the job descriptions such as sheetmetal, industrial design, or hardcore solid design. For Solid Design, I recommend as follows:
<ul>[*]First of all, mention that you're a Veteran at MCADCENTRAL!
[*]Copy Geom (is the BIG one), such as surfaces and axis copy
[*]Coordinate system manipulation and creation, e.g. for CAM purposes
[*]Use Inheritance (suppress unwanted features), avoid using the original copy
[*]Design in Assembly mode (Activate and Redefine) -- Skeleton and Top Down Design[*]Collision detection for massive assembly
[*]Auto BOM and Balloons (accuracy)
[*]Parameters control (for repeated text and numbers)[*]Relations (control critical dimensions)[*]Know how to add analysis in 3D notes for checking approval
[*]Cross section view using offset[*]Layers controls (big mess, but calm them down by using Simplified Rep)
[*]Family table (big time saving but some companies prohibit it)[*]Know how to search for specific features using names and ID filter
[*]GD&T knowledge is a big Plus! There are maybe 5 main symbols to use repeatedly, the rest is just the supplements.
[*]Animation export to MPEG for field demo.
[*]PDMLink and Intralink (same stuff, just different Oracle databases) such as Save-As, Delete, Check-in, Check-out, Keep Checked-out, revision analysis, use of Purge Pro.
[*]ProjectLink is a Big Plus![*]And finally, do some simple FEA using Pro/Mechanica
[/list]

At my last interview they asked to "prove" knowledge of Solid Edge and ProE. So for ProE they gave me a seat at the desk of guy running it on a laptop. It was WF2 and I had been working in 2001 for2 years, with only WF2 to try when we didin't have anything else to do. Anyway, I had to construct a rectangular block. As soon as I began constraining it to be symmetrical about the main datum planes I was considered professional ...

In a sense it was a not a test at all, but still it showed something about using the software. And to be honest, if I would see someone construct a protrusion in "mid-air" I wouldn't feel comfortable for the future.


(I had to to some features and assembly afterwards, but this wasn't about extreme knowledge but general way of working).
