Are the interviews recommended or by invitation only?

Rightzzz

Hi ,

I have just received a interview call from Austin. I have sent a email from the online interview scheduling system to an alumni. I had submitted the form on 20th Nov.

Now the questions for people who have had there interviews
1. What was the venue for your interview ?
2. Did u suggest the venue for the interview or did the interviewer choose it?

Any tips you could give for the interview or interview process that you went through for Austin would be extremely helpful.

Thanks in Advance :smile:

P.S. Interviews are by invitation only.
