What impressed you positively?

The interview was extremely nice. She had very open body language, and was very receptive of every answer that I gave.

What impressed you negatively?

The interview showed up 10 minutes late to the interview, and left about 10 minutes early. She asked standard questions off of a piece of paper, and asked absolutely nothing about me, my hobbies, or my application that was not written for her to ask. That aspect felt very impersonal.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

To prepare more for scenario questions. I had prepared somewhat, but my mind was blank when she asked me what I would do in specific situations. Just to remember basic things that would apply to all scenarios, and really have those down.

What are your general comments?

The interviewer was extremely nice, but her untimely mannerisms and overall lack of interest in me made it feel very impersonal.
