Sounds like actual documents. So you say you can’t provide client deliverables but you can speak to them.

An “Upstream O&G client” or “consumer packaged goods client”. Just specific enough without dropping names or logos

Are they asking for details of projects or for actual documents?

You tell him exactly that, sorry, it's all IP

I would question going to work for someone without enough sense to know that’s inappropriate

Don't work for this person. They are an idiot. I'm sure they would love you sharing their internal documents as examples once you leave.

Thanks guys! I’m seeing being PC is the best route here. Will make sure to do that
