All Ethiopian 2015 DV Winners Meet Here!

I think this interview experience is not from ETH, as dawgeb said he found on the other thread.
The interview experience is for a Kenyan lady ( by the name Jules) dated 8th October 2015 and NOT for Ndumbiz Mwafasi.He just copy pasted someones post on his Facebook) and I don't think Ndumbiz is a registered member of dv 2015 kenya.
 
Dear all is there any specific answer for the interview likely question of 'what u intended to do in USA?'
thanks

Hi rolex123,

If it is my question, my answer will be ...any legal jobs. I don't think it will matter if you also answer related to your profession if you are profesional.
By theway, do you hear or see anyone from Ethiopia who got an interview appointment?
 
Now the details: Wanted to be extra
careful so I had to set double alarm
last night and then went to bed.
Before going to bed, I checked my
documents to make sure everything
was intact. Around 3:45am my eyes
opened (natural instinct I guess lol)
couldn't go back to sleep again so
had to watch Aljazeera news to
keep myself occupied. Exactly 5:30 I
bordered a taxi cab. Got to the
Embassy some few minutes after
6am. Meet a couple of people
waiting around the embassy. At
7am the gate was opened. We were
ordered to form 2 separate queues,
one for immigrants the other for
non-immigrants. I joined the
immigrants queue and then we
went through security checks. Our
bags were scanned and mobile
phones, laptops, usb were left at the
security. We finally went through
and into the main hall. Soon my
name was called and my documents
were taken at Window 1. I was then
ordered to go do my payment at the
cashier. I paid $330 and took the
receipt back to Window 1. Then the
waiting began. I waited for about 30
mins. While waiting I met a lovely
lady who was also on DV lottery (we
were too far apart to have any
meaningful convo. Soon my name
was mentioned and I walked over
to Window 5. A lovely American CO
greeted me with smiles. I smiled
back (keep a smile)
Now the Main interview:
CO: Good Morning
Me:Good Morning
CO:εti sεn (How are you)
Me: εγε οο na wonso εεh (I'm good
and You
CO: εγε (I'm good)
Me: Smiling...
CO: Pls raise your right hand and
swear to speak the truth and
nothing but the truth
Me: I did that
CO: Which year did you finished
High School
Me: Answered
CO: How many times did you sat for
SSCE/WASSCE
Me: Answered
CO: And these are your results?
Me: Yea
CO: What did you do after school?
Me: Started explaining
CO: Go straight to the point
Me: Told him where I work now
At this point he was busily typing
on his computer
CO: Smiling.. Congratulations your
visa has been approved
Me: Smiling too, thank you
CO: It wasn't difficult was it ?
Me:.No it wasn't (matter of fact it
wasn't?
The main interview lasted less than
2 minutes. The CO told me he will
keep my documents and passport
and issued me with the super blue
paper with the collection date on.
He even apologized for the
interview delay.
I know It's a lengthy stuff I've
written pls pardon me. Just want
everyone to have the interview
experience from A - Z.. pls ignored
all my typos.
 
What if i say: "Any Legal Job" doesn't that sound OK
thanks Simon I am planning to say that but I am social graduate professional worker here , what if 'planning to do any legal work until I certified my degree diploma with WES so as to look for professional work'

That would be fantastic.I think the intention here is to understand how well/easily you can adopt to the system(as you progress).
 
dear all is any unlocking request from now will impact on appointment date? I mean if I want to update few of my profile next week.
thanks
