What are your general comments?

"My interview experience was tough but not as bad as I had expected. You will not meet all of the other interviewees because of how they set it up and the student tour is optional. You will get to have lunch, watch a video and then go to your interview. They do have laptops but they are closed and are not at all a distraction. Keep your eyes off the cookies in the middle of the room while interviewing because I think I looked at them too much. " Report Response
