It's definitely more casual and informal than an actual interview. But I also don't think it's as much about evaluating your skills and capabilities as it is assessing your personality and vibe. I would just go and see how it is without stressing too much.
This happened to me once. But when I got to dinner, I realized I wasn’t really being interviewed. The guy was trying to sell me on his firm more than anything else.
I went through this process, however it was an informal lunch not dinner. I just approached it as an interview. I get what you mean about it feeling harder than an interview, I barely ate and felt the restaurant atmosphere was distracting. I ended up getting the job though! It’s really just an initial screener and remember they wouldn’t want to meet with you if you weren’t qualified. Like someone else said it’s more about assessing your personality and whether you’re a culture fit.
