In this game, the only thing you really need in a team is for less than half of the team to not be retarded. And if you've got a good enough build, not even that.

I watched a guy inviting to a TF, but he said one must send a tell with your build to be invited. I sent him a reply, "I am built like a brick @#$%house, can I join?" He sent me an invitation, but I declined. This is too much like WoW and the shouts on the trade channel there for dungeon raiders that state one must endure an equipment check. The last guy who checked my "equipment" got a black eye.

If some dude is checking your equipment, that means you are smexy enough to look at. 
It's a compliment. 
These days I enjoy joining a team filled with new-er players who are still learning just how super a superhero can be. It adds to the challenge, and allows me to show off a bit.
I do, however, dislike being invited to a team with badguys who are lower level then me... if that's the case I just say so and move on... sometimes I'm even polite.
I gotta make pain. I gotta make things right. I gotta stop what's comin'. 'Least I gotta try.
I usually join after the first tell asking if I want to do missions and gather the answers to other questions for myself by observation. I'll do at least one mission if it's started timely before bowing out.
Spines/ D A lvl 50 Scrap, stone/wm lvl 50 tank, Kat/reg lvl 50 Scrap
Grav/Kin lvl 50 Cont, Fire/Enegry lvl 50 Blast
Warshade lvl 50, PB lvl 39, nightwidow lvl 50, crab lvl 42
plant/thorns lvl 50 dom, ice/fire lvl 40 dom, grav/nrg lvl 41 dom

"AT and Builds?" He was probably playing with you, and didn't intend to join, just to string you along.
If he was serious, I'd have some significant doubts about his capability.

Only time i've been "interviewed" is when i'm setting up TFs.
Me: "Hi, the hubby and i are putting together the Manti TF, and are currently LF 3M. blahblah #of merits blah, TF commander accolade blah, 2 hrs or less, blah, pst for invite or more info"
Potential Teammate (PT): "What do you have already?"
Me: 2 trollers, blaster, tank, scrap. anything's welcome.
PT: looking for heals, dps or other?
Me: Bodies. just need bodies. want to join? bring whatcha want. any class.
PT: Ok, brb with <alt spec> named <soandso>
Me: Right on, will save your seat
conversely, the closest i get to interviewing is this:
TeamLeader (TL): LFAE?
Me: (wincing at that oh-so-informative and wonderful introduction) it depends? if it's not WAPL and everyone on team contributes, I'm in.
