B1 Experience - US consulate Mumbai
VO: Good Morning
Me: Good Morning

VO: Who is your client
Me: X

VO: What is your designation here
Me: ZZZ

VO: So what does YYYY does?
Me: gather requirements, system design and handover to the development team

VO: For how will you in U.S.?
Me: 2 weeks.

VO: Thank you. Your visa is approved.
Me: Thank you!

I believe the reason why VO asked designation was probably to map my designation and requirements of B1 visa. I had prior business travel experience to other countries, but I believe that should hardly matter.

The interview lasted for 30 seconds.

In a nutshell -
Be yourself and show confidence in your answers.
Do not mumble!
Be prepared.
Share the truth.
You should know why are you going and what you will do there. That's it.
If your designation sounds technical, prove how you'll play the role.
Wear pleasant attire - No casuals.

Cheers! Best of Luck!
