I already figured that there were not many minorities there, but I didn't realize how few they were. But that's not a problem for me; I welcome the change.

What are your general comments?

The interview was great! There was a part where they ask five questions and provide no feedback, then there is an informal part where there is an actual conversation. Overall, it was a wonderful experience.
