What are your general comments?
It was overall a very great experience. People were extremely friendly. Both of my interviewers were very nice. They told me how great I was (it felt weird!). One of the interviewers explained to me about different specialties. Both interviewers said "say thanks to your parents." There were not any formal interview questions. I was not sure how I did because it really did not feel like an interview.
