What are your general comments?

I really thought the interviewers were nice. They really put me at ease when I first walked into the interview room. They started off by commenting on my purse (of all things)and we just had a normal conversation for a few minutes. Then once they saw that I was slightly more relaxed, they began the interview. I really can't stress enough how important it is to relax and be yourself. This was my first interview (ever) so I was EXTREMELY nervous. I know it is easier said then done, but you will enjoy the day more if you relax. Also, for all those "over-thinkers" out there, DO NOT drive yourself crazy once the interview is over. I really stressed after the interview about my answers, but they were all fine (I just received my acceptance today!). The interviewers know that you are nervous and I am sure you answered the questions to the best of your ability. Good luck!
