What impressed you negatively?

What are your general comments?

Overall, I had a good impression of the place. My suggestions for interviewing: be prepared to answer a form of the most typically asked questions; and remember there may be a person purposely trying to throw you off your game to see how you react; they want to get a good impression of how you react under stress, so stay calm.
