What impressed you positively?

First interviewer loved New Mexico and being a physician

What impressed you negatively?

The administrative staff were not even there when I arrived to get my interview schedule and then they had changed the time of my first interview without notifing me so I was late.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Don't trust what the staff tell you about the time of your interviews.

What are your general comments?

My first interview was positive. I have heard that New Mexico does the classic good cop bad cop style of interviews. My second interviewer was late and did not seem interested in interviewing me. At one point she stated she was required to do these interviews. If you have the option to go else where, as I did, take it!
