How did you prepare for the interview?

Browsed interview feedback. Created a question bank. Practiced answering the questions.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities.

What impressed you negatively?

Both my interviewers had not read my file earlier and read it only during the interview. The person who gave the financial talk seemed more like a army, navy, airforce recruiter. Did not gain anything from that meeting. The financial handouts were more helpful.

No surprises.

If you are driving to the interview look up the area map ahead of time. The interview was low pressure. The staff were very friendly and pleasant.
