How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN interview feedback. Read all the questions, wrote out answers to them, and practiced interviewing with friends. I also had a mental list of a few anecdotes and situations that I wanted to say in the interview and kind of made them fit into the questions.

Nothing.

Report Response | I was asked this too

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

They re-use the same questions, and the interview is blind, so definitely look over interview feedback and take as many questions from it as you can to practice interviewing. Also, take the water they offer you, and bring it in the room. Your mouth will probably get dry (50 minutes is a lot of talking), and it also gives you a good method of stalling to think about answers to questions.
