What impressed you positively?

This was my second time interviewing. Both times the admissions staff and others were very friendly and willing to answer questions. In my last interview the demeanor of the panel was more confrontational (though not bad). This time the panel seemed to be allowing for changes in direction and gave more feedback through facial expressions. They remained on task, however, which meant the questions were generally serious and required a good understanding of position before you walked in. They were ready to laugh/smile on occaision.

What impressed you negatively?

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

I was very happy to be there and really felt like I had demonstrated that through experiences, so while nervous I was thinking about the positive of being invited to interview rather than the 'possibilities' to follow. I had a good time and if I have to do it again next year- so be it.
