HCMC interview

Your effort to post such detailed report on the interview so others can read alone should deserve you the Pink slip. Most people don't even bother to update their Timeline, much less posting anything to help other VJers here.

A big and respectful Bravo to the two of you!

PS. Your SO is luckier than mine, being able to celebrate the New Year over there before leaving.

The Q&A session was fantastic! simple answer, yes/no, not too much, nor too little detail. Just the right amount! Craig did a good job on coaching his fiance and she herself just being confident and her own self is the key factor.

If you notice, the CO didn't focus on just ONE piece of evidence to give the "PASS" decision but instead, he drilled through the variety of issues. From Location, Timeline, Current employment status, relationship status, interaction and communication ability, family history and background to the price of the engagement ring. I never thought NOT having the engagement is a the problem, BUT I always believe not having a solid on-going relationship IS the problem for most C.O.

Conducting the interview in English is a major advantage for her!

Last but not least, Craig and Cam did "think and question" themselves as a C.O. in their preparation for the interview. That's the key to "counter-drilling" by being pro-active with the questions. Good lesson for many who are going through the same thing... Think like a C.O.!

Great job and congrats!

Chuck and Kim
