[QUOTE="D, post: 31578, member: 540"] Ah, that's frustrating re: the feedback, however, it is one of those things. My experience with interviews (I did a lot this year) was that firms seemed to use it in different ways. Some firms placed significant reliance on the interview, asked quite formulaic questions, and I received feedback specifically from my performance during those interviews. Others... it's was less formulaic, more casual. The impression I got from these was that it was more of a "feeler" of who I was as a person. When I received feedback from these interviews, it focused mostly on my personality rather than the substantive nature of my answers. Therefore, the best approach in my view is to have an excellent bank of answers that you can provide to questions, while also ensuring you can come across as a relaxed, confident, committed, friendly, motivated applicant :) [/QUOTE]
