General Comments:

·         Don’t be nervous and have a list of stories ready to elaborate on experience

·         Weird situation as it was almost difficult to get a word in with the interviewer.  Doubt it happens often as the person in question was somewhat new to the process, but I was caught very off guard as I was not prepared for that and had never been given any advice on how to handle that type of rare situation
