Telephone interview with associate. Lasted approximately 30 minutes and a large portion was consumed with the interviewer telling me about their experiences at MS which was really nice. Made me feel at ease straightaway and always relatively optimistic following my responses to his questions. Started with a couple of questions regarding my cover letter and the standard 'why MS?' and 'why IB?'
