What are your general comments?
Overall the day went quite well. My co-interviewees were all nice and friendly. My interviewer was a very calm friendly guy who made it a point to make sure you felt comfortable. He made it seem like a conversation and not like a Q & A session. I was very pleased with this low stress environment. I was distressed at the price of taxi cabs and them not knowing where NYCOM was but just where NYIT was (not too big of a problem).
