Thanks for sharing your interview experiences. Very helpful indeed! Quick question, what day of the week did y'all schedule your interview on? Is it better to schedule it on the weekend vs. weekday, or the other way around?
Perhaps a bit too early to worry about for an R2 applicant...
Once you consider your schedule (I have to travel for my interviews and can only afford to be away from work for a day) and the interviewers', you may not have the luxury of picking weekend or weekday, lunch/coffee, office/cafe, etc.
I personally wouldn't worry too much about all that. Weekend would seem to be more laid-back, but interviewers are very busy people and maybe the weekend is the only time they have for themselves, their family and non-work task. My point is you'll probably go crazy trying to clearly define which is better. Just pick one!
