The interview was held in the back room and felt quite informal. They weren't overly friendly or chatty. I thought it went okay, but since I couldn't work around New Year's due to a holiday I'd already planned, I suspect that might have affected the outcome.

It was a pretty relaxed interview. The interviewer was super nice, and I didn't feel a lot of pressure. The room was kinda small and looked like a storage space. We sat on stools because there weren't any chairs. Besides that, it went pretty well.
