Hello everyone! I just left from my first interview and I would like some advice and perspective. Here is a quick rundown of what happened: * Got at their office 15min earlier, chatted with receptionist and looked around. * Met with the recruiter which proceeded to show me around (mainly by pointing around). * Met with art…
