My experience in Chennai Consulate
Thanks to everyone and immihelp on sharing the experience.
Before interview for H1B
1. Collect all docs in file and use stick-it and label them properly. Keep degree certificate, experience certificate, company photos in a common folder. Other duplicate copies can be in different folder. This will help you to track the doc quickly.
2. Keep DS-156, DS-157 in separate file. This will be collected and arranged in separate a file at VFS service counter in entrance.

On interview, Chennai consulate is one of busiest and be prepared for a long day. It took 5 hours in my first interview in Dec and yesterday it took almost 8 hours from 9.00 a.m to 5:00 p.m

Some of the details you should carry,
1. Itinerary of your work (covering 3 years) - mention your project phases, specification, study, development, testing, maintanence etc and justify that client need you for 3 years. Put your role also in each phase.
2. Client site or work place. Client contact detail is also necessary.
3. Marketing analysis - basically Consulate wants to make sure that petitioner can pay your salary for the work. In case of web development show that it earns revenue, if the petitioner has sound financial background to pay your salary take some doc to prove that.
4. Project details - what is your role in project, this may be covered in itinerary.
5. Sometime design doc or basic document on project may be useful.

Even with all above doc it is common to get 221g. It depends on mood of the questioner and luck. Also I think Dec and Jan has been busy with excess appointments and consulate gave lot of 221g.


Best of luck,
ck
