What impressed you positively?

My interviewer was really, really nice; not scary or mean or anything.

My interview was supposed to start at 2.45p and started at 3.05p, so I think my interviewer might've been rushing... and I ended up missing the tour.

Nothing, but you should look over the nine competencies and have an idea of what they are. They help alot in your interview.
