What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"Even though the website says the hotels are within walking distance, that isn't really true although shuttle service is usually available. Don't forget to tip the airport shuttle driver <they leave every 15 mins> and don't lose your round trip ticket like I did! Also, you are usually done by 4 so a 6PM flight is doable" Report Response

What are your general comments?

"I *really* wish I had done better on this interview. No difficult questions were asked, but few questions were asked at all. It was very open ended, and I just rambled on for an hour about jobs, schools, family, etc. The interviewer was very nice, but I couldn't tell if he was impressed or not. In a nutshell you have a lot of control over this interview, so go into it, prepared to sell yourself rather than be interrogated. Also ask the interviewer about him or herself..mine seemed to enjoyed telling his life story" Report Response
