What are your general comments?

Overall it was a stress-free experience. Starting off the day with interviews is definitely much better than having to wait until the afternoon and stressing all day. The first interview was more conversational while the other two asked the traditional questions- these two did not really seem interested in getting to know me as a person and seemed very nervous... I hope it wasn't something I said! It was nowhere near as bad as I had expected; if you're reading this now- don't waste your time stressing- it's gonna be a great day!
