What impressed you positively?

the facilities are amazing. people are very enthusiastic and excited to be there.

What impressed you negatively?

everyone said that the interviews would be really laid back, but i found one of mine to be quite the opposite. it wasn't a conversation at all - my interviewer was asking me typical questions that had little relation to each other (what's your greatest strength, greatest weakness, best accomplishment, greatest failure, etc. etc.)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

the day is VERY long. the interviews aren't necessarily going to be conversations...

What are your general comments?

it's a great place, and i really hope to be able to go there...
