💬 Interview Process

What impressed you positively?

The woman that interviewed me was great and the interview was very relaxed and comfortable.

What impressed you negatively?

The students, facilities, and location did not impress me. The tour was given by two students who forgot to show us the library and had nothing interesting to say- just pointed out classrooms and other areas. Also, the whole day was unorganized. I didn't know if I was done and should leave or if there was something else, and no one was there to ask.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

More about the area. It's located in a bad area of Brooklyn.
