B1/B2 Visa Approved
So i have had a few bad experiences on denied schengen visa and i had absolutely no hope in getting my B1/B2 visa.

Interview was today at US Consulate, Nairobi Kenya
*No correct photo - sent to get a correct one
*Fingerprints done
*Wait for my nr to be called

While in the queue i saw more than 7 people get denied. Only two got approved within the 20 minutes i was in the queue inside. Unfortunately i have to go to the counter with the grim lady. My heart sunk a little as she was with another gentleman sitted behind her and they seemed to be sharing the information. Only counter with 2 people..

CO: Halo how are you
Me: Responds
CO: Why are you going to US
Me: To attend a conference
CO: What is the conference about and where is it?
Me: Dallas, Texas
CO: Why were you chosen for this trip
Me: Responds
Note; I was a little skeptic as this conference had nothing to do with my duties at work
CO: How long will you be there
Me: Conference 7 days and an extra 5 days for sight seeing (2 weeks)
CO: Are you married?
Me: No
CO: Do you have kids?
Me: No
Given am only 25 no kids no husband i knew no chance for me.
CO: Who is your employer and how long have you worked for them?
Me: Responds
CO: Who will be paying for the trip?
Me: My employer
CO: Have you ever traveled for business outside kenya?
Me: I have attended a training in Dubai (5 days) (CO scans through my passport checking for UAE stamp i guess.) Finds i traveled twice to Dubai, 2016 and 2017 each a week.
CO: Can i see your work documents
Me: Hands them over but she doesn't look at them just passes them to the gentleman behind her
She turns off the microphone and turns to consult the gentleman. The few seconds that i waited was a pain and i could just stare at the blue slips and think that was way too far fetched for me.

CO Turns back microphone and says those golden words "You will be issued the visa, go to counter 10 and make the payments"
Me: My heart was singing cathedrals at this point and i went and paid.
Awaiting my visa on Friday!

Thanks so much guys. Before the interview i went through the experiences and this helped me prep myself. Good luck to everyone.
Thanks
