It was less stressful than I was expecting it to be

Overall a great experience! I was expecting to be grilled on the core competencies but I really wasn't. My interviewers were friendly and provided visible/verbal feedback to my answers. The curriculum restructuring seems to be for the better, as they switch to flipped classroom and active learning.

It was rather difficult to get a hold of them
