H1B, H4 Visa

Thanks this forum and the members who have been valuable repository for VISA aspirants. Below is my experience

Interview Date: 9/14 - Mumbai. Appointment: 07:45 AM

History: My previous H1B stamping attempt was rejected in October last year due to Employer-Employee Relationship and is currently with USCIS for a review.

06:15 AM : Reached Consulate (Already a big crowd but no queue was formed)
06:45 AM: Stood in the queue with my wife
06:55 AM: VFS personal checked the appointment letter, I797 and passports while in the queue itself
07:10 AM: Let inside the consulate
07:15 AM: Initial security checking - no electronic equipments, gadgets etc. Carried all originals for me and my wife in a transparent folder
07:30 AM: Another queue to get the serial number from VFS personal. Validation of the appointment letter. They stick a sticker with the serial number over the passport. One thing to note: If going for a family based VISA, only one sticker on the principal petitioners passport would be affixed.
08:00 AM: Queue for ten-finger printing
08:10 AM: Waiting for the serial number to appear on the big TV screen. Individual windows have a smaller screen enlisting the current and upcoming serial numbers
08:15 AM: Windows 26, 28, 33 and 34 start processing. Gentleman on #26 is very soft spoken and is approving a lot of cases with basic questions asked. # 28 is a rude looking India with American accent. He seems to be screwing up a lot of cases - even H4's. My hope is mine should be on #26
08:30 AM: My serial number is shown up on #28. (Kash....all wishes come true!)
08:40 AM: After standing in the queue for window #28, my tuen to face the VO. I was tense but my wife was cool!

Transcript
Me: Good morning Sir
VO: No response

Me: Feeling more tense
VO: Pass me your passports, interview appointment letters and I797 please
Me: Given over

VO: Whats the name of the client:
Me YYYY based in XX of YYYY state

VO: Whats your highest level of education
Me: Answered

VO: Experience
Me: Answered

VO: How many years with this employer
Me: New offer

VO: How did you come to know about this opening
Me: Told him that I am in India since Nov 2011 stuck on a 221g of my earlier petition, had posted my profile on dice, the employer reached me over email, had a couple of rounds ot interviews before being interviewed by the client. Thats how I got this offer

To my wife:
VO: When did you marry
Wife: 2ZZZ

VO: Do you have any kids
Wife: Answered

VO: Where did you get married
Wife: Pune

The VO types something on the system, literally threw our documents back in the window-document collection area and said you would get your passports by courier.

I did not waste even a minute more at the window (Didn't wish the VO to rethink and start asking something else) Grabbed all the docs, thanked him and that was it. It took less than 2 minutes overall.

Key: Have a good employer. Even a top-tier US based staffing company(TechSystem, KForce etc) is good if not FTE.
Also, try to be cool which I know is easier said than done.

All the Very Best for all the aspirants and thanks a bunch to the forum for providing valuable help
