My B1/B2 visa experience
I would not like to share my interview date, but this is how my experience was:
This is my first attempt

>Attire does matter, remember you are applying for Business Visa. Though there is no need for a suit-boot and tie, your grooming and dressing should reflect your professional attitude.

>I had carried every possible document I could.

>I was observing the interview counters, though every VO as human beings are different, their approach is same. They should be convinced either to reject or to approve, so until they are convinced, they keep asking for more details. They may be convinced (to approve or reject) in first few questions or keep on asking dozens of questions.

VO : Pls handover me your passport
Me : Gave my passport

VO : What is purpost of visit
Me : <Told my purpose> Note: Be precise with choice of your words, "travelling to US", "Visiting US", "Going to US" all have different meaning. Also "Business meeting", "Business Discussion" etc are not the same, think about it before you speak out.

VO : What do you do?
Me : I wasn't sure of this question, I answered with my Designation. But he expected me to elaborate and asked me what is my role. I explained.

VO : How many days will you stay?
Me : I was again very precise with my answer, instead of answering in no. of weeks, I said I will be there of X working days, including weekends it would be Y days.

VO was typing something and handed me a slip, which I initially thought 214b but VO said : Ok sir, your Visa is approved, pls follow the instructions in this slip on how to get your passport. VO didn't ask me a single document!

I'm not yet married, I have overall experience of 7yrs+, experience with my present employer is less than a year. Salary is less slightly less than industry standard.
The repute of the company you work for DOES matter. And advantage for you if its US based.
