"Laid back, although one person played good cop and the other person played bad cop. There were supposed to be 3 persons on the panel, but I ended up with only 2. They both seemed quite young. I didn't think the interview was bad, but I do think I rambled on sometimes. Brevity and concision have never been my strong points. But overall, I think it was a good experience. I'm glad this was my 1st stop on the interview trail. Good practice." Report Response
