What impressed you negatively?

"The 1st interview was hard to get to on time (it was across the street from Shands). I knew where I was going and barely made it...Suits were not meant for jogging ;) My 1st interviewer was great but the second was a bit dry and dull. She had a legal pad with all her questions written out and little spaces to jot down my answers. I talked as much as I could but she said very little and just flew through her list, leaving about 30 min left over. Then I asked a bunch of questions. In the end it wasn't much of a conversation."
