L1A Individual & L2 Approved.
First of all I want to thank this forum for sharing thier experiences. This forum has helped me to prepare me for taking my interview confidently.
My Blanket L1A was rejected earlier and was told to file and Individual petition. I guess it is much easier to get the VISA based on Individual petition rather than blanket. Like someone in this forum said if once your blanket is rejected and you are told to file an individual petition , it should be easy for you.
My interview was scheduled in the morning at Hyderabad US consulate. I reached along with my wife and 1 year old kid. If you have a kid, you get a VIP treatment as you don't have to stand in any queue. You will get preference every where right from the main gate entry, BEP queue (where you will be collecting your docs earlier submitted), finger printing and finally interview. Following were the questions asked:

Me: Good Morning
VO: Hello
VO: How long have you been working with YYYY company
Me: XX years
VO: What is your educational degree?
Me: ZZZ, ZZZ, ZZZ
VO: When was your blanket rejected?
Me: ZZZ
VO: I am curious to understand how much time it took for individual to get approved?
Me: There is an internal approval process in my organiszation before an individual petition is filed. It took around 15 days from the date it was filled for individual petition to get approved.
VO: 15 days, that's great..
Me: Yeah, they filed under premium processing.
VO: which place are going to in US?
Me: ZZZ
VO: Thank you sir, Your visa is approved and your will get your passports back in a week's time.

NO questions to my wife.
