How many other applicants there were. There were about 100 others

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How many of the functions were actually just optional to attend.

What are your general comments?

It went well. One of the interviews was very congenial and eager to talk and ask questions. The other interviewer was standoffish and didn't seem interested because he kept getting paged. I suppose that is why they have two interviewers. I was also asked by several other applicants why I would ever wear a black dress suit with a light blue shirt. I agreed with them though. While appropriate it looked afwul and was a bad choice for any occasion.
