Exactly! First of all, an entry level Ph.D scientist is not expected to lead a team, and most likely, he may be associated with a couple of RAs who are conducting the routine work; secondly, it is really difficult to get into industry these days, with strong network (possibly your PI), you might be able to make it to the on site interview, but there are often several candidates, therefore, you soft skills will play a critical role at this stage, and it takes time and experience to improve your interview skills. It sounds like lou zhu is worrying about some thing totally irrelevant, a little bit too naive.
