What are your general comments?

"The interviewer was rude and uninterested. He did not bother to look at my file (he was supposed to) and while I was speaking he looked through his mail without paying attention to me. He then picked up the phone and called about a parking ticket he just received, without even an apology for his interruption. Not a great interview, but I heard the other interviewers are fairly congenial. " Report Response
