It's possible they are considering you because they want someone with
experience in the things you have done. I would discuss how that experience
applies to the position you are interviewing for.
Another approach would be to discuss how you have (or would have) applied
principles of information architecture and instructional design to work you
currently do or have done in the past.

Hi all,
I was wondering how one can ace an interivew when the job one is applying
for is in a different domain. Say, a Technical Writer who has been writing
User Manuals, project documents and marketing collateral who now wants to
get on the eLearning bandwagon as an Information Architect/Instructional
Designer or whatchamacallit.
Thanks in adavnce for sharing your thoughts...
