The interview was very conversational and my interviewer was very personable. Lasted almost an hour. The interview was completely blind, he hadn’t even seen my resume. The questions were typical questions. Why Darden? What value do you think you’ll bring? He spoke a lot about what Darden is like and answered all of my questions. I was surprised with how not stuffy the interview was. I really enjoyed the experience and now think very highly of Darden.
