My wife's interview was in Tirane, Albania. Her appointment was at 9am. When she showed up at 9am, she gave them pictures, emails, letters and phone records. All of these documents were given back to her with the exception of the photo albums. She then was told to come back at 1pm for the actual interview. During the interview, she was only asked a few questions.

What is you maden name?

How long have you known your spouse?

Do his parents work?

Where do they work?

After that, she was congratulated and told to come back on friday to pick up her passport with the visa on it.

Hope this helps!

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
