This e-mail (if legit) is as vague and convoluted as some of the lab
tasks we will encounter! :-)
Here are some of the statements in it:
1) The interview is 10 minutes
2) The interview is after orientation and before the lab
3) Your day will extend by one hour
4) This additional hour is at the end of the day
Whew!
I guess it is a 60-minute interview - it is before the lab - and they
are starting at the normal time and running an hour past the normal
finish time.
I would like to speak to a proctor please for verification that I am
correct.

Subject: CCIE R&S lab exam

Dear Candidate:
On August 27, Cisco will introduce a pilot for the CCIE Routing and
Switching lab exam in Beijing, China. The pilot will add a 10-minute
interview that will assess the candidate's ability to apply expert-level
networking skills and knowledge to networking problems that are
encountered
on the job. After the lab orientation, a panel of three experts will
conduct
a verbal interview with each candidate, asking a series of expert-level
networking questions (questions and answers will be in English). The
ability
to correctly answer these questions will affect the exam score. After
completing the interview, the candidate will have the entire 8 hours to
complete the lab portion of the exam. These scores will then be
calculatedand then combined for a total score which will decide a pass
or a fail.
Our goal with this email is to let you know that your day will extend
beyond
the normal testing day by approximately one hour. The additional hour
will
be at the end of the day. We hope you find this interview process
enlightening and helpful as we continue to strive for the standard the
world
has come to expect from CCIE.
Thank you.
