What do you love/hate about it?
Are you allowed to take notes or tape record interviews? I have a good memory, but I will be intimidated if I have to remember every detail from dozens of interviews by hard.

I think depending on what field you are getting into the pay can often be quite sucky for recent grads, especially factoring in loans, rent, car payment, etc. I heard somewhere only like 1% of new grads can actually say they have their "dream job" and are making the salary they think they should be making. What recent grads often forget is a Bachelor's degree is often the same as a HS diploma and you need to receive a Master's and specialized training before you make a decent salary. I've never heard about anyone tape recording an interview but I am sure if you asked ahead of time that would be okay. Ummm, another thing is in this day and age so many people are going back to school so fields are flooded with recent grads which makes it harder to get a job. Just playing devil's advocate here, don't mean to discourage anyone.............
