Re: Good Luck Everybody with Interviews..
Hi,
Good Luck for your interview on Wednesday! I can understand your anxiety. I was a nervous wreck in the waiting room when I had mine recently.
Thankfully, it was a real breeze, lasting only 5 minutes. The interviewer told us we did everything right from the start which made their job easy!
I'm sure you are already well prepared but would like to share with you two things we did that made the interview go well for us.
1. We prepared a 2-page thumbnail photographic story of our life together from the day and presented this when he asked us how we met. Apparently, all interviews start with this question. I had included meaningul quotes and funny captions to each picture which really helped ease the initial tension. After seeing the photos and hearing our short story, he didn't ask any other questions or check any documents - the interview became a nice chat!
2. We also had the right body language all the time to show your comfortable relationship. The interviewer said that was important.
I hope your interview is just as easy if not better.
Again, BEST OF LUCK!

Re: Good Luck Everybody with Interviews..
Wish everyone good luck on their interview. I will be having mine in March. I am a little nervous. just got done with my medical exam and start preparing for all the documentations needed.
But one thing I noticed on my interview letter it stated that "the interview will be video-taped". Is that normal? That makes me nervous. Any idea?
