What are your general comments?
my interviews were very different from each other. The first was a young female MD and it was very laid back and conversational. The second was a stern older male MD who asked the tough ethical questions, but in the end was very nice. Almost everyone else I talked to that interviewed there said it was very laid back, especially when the 4th year students interviewed.
