What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"I wish I knew what to expect from the MSTP director interview. It was only 10 minutes long! She told me what questions she would ask at the beginning of the interview- and it was three questions, so I felt rushed in all my answers. If I had known it would be a full-on interview with many questions, I would have prepared more brief answers" Report Response
