What are your general comments?

"The interview experience was great overall. I really liked the way the interview day was fairly short-we ended ~1:00pm. All of the interviews were early-the latest was at 10:30am.

Very laid back-the group of ppl who were interviewed were easy to talk to and seemed like they were good ppl. " Report Response
