What are your general comments?
It seemed that one of my interviewers knew the info in my file and questioned me from that. The other one was reading off a list of questions. My travel expenses would have been $1K if I didn't have airline and hotel points. I also found out about my interview later than others it seems. I only had a week to plan after I booked my interview time. My travel time would have only been 4.5 hours each way if I would not have had huge airport delays (9 hours). So don't wait until the last minute to arrive!!
