Constructive Criticisms:
1. Side-Tracked – I felt we got a little side-tracked at times by all the funny stories you had. They were really interesting but I feel like they distract from the interview.
2. Nervousness – This is probably just my problem but I feel like you almost took too much control over the interview so much so it made me really nervous. Honestly, that's probably my problem though.
3. Exploration – I feel like you could have made me expand on some of my statements.

Overall, I had a really awesome time interviewing you Shane and I hope all goes well in your future.
