Is there a place where we can view interview stories? I hunt and peck around and have found many, but it would be great to see more!

(I know about the interview thread, but there are lots of little posts and a few stories)

I remember mine from 21 yrs ago in Vancouver.

It was for permanent residency to move to the US to permanently work and live.

It's more of a final check then a interview for a job or something where you have to say everything perfect.

By then everything has been checked on paper and now it's time to match faces to the pictures etc.

If you tell the truth on all your paperwork, then appearing in person is a breeze.

In a very few months I get to have another interview in Vancouver with my Fiance and I can't wait, after all who wouldn't want to talk about their love story!
