Good luck but they may just want a robot who shuts up and conforms. Despite some people here saying the balance of power does not necessarily rest with the employer, in some cases it does if there are many desperate job seekers who are willing to jump through hoops. You may want to apply to specific smaller teams and/or do your own thing. That said, if you do bite, I have learned a lot from my stints at places who hire like this. The biggest lesson I learned after several years is doing my own thing is right for me.
