It went well. She was really nice and it was really comfortable. Luckily, some of the issues that have to be covered don't apply to us (dealing with infertility, knowledge of parenting) so we may be able to get through our interviews a bit more quickly than some other waiting parents. This interview was only about an hour and was just an introduction. Next interview is 20 May and will be a half day.
The only issues we may have today is that our house might not pass the safety test. We are not fenced down one side and we might need to have that fenced before we can be approved. We have a high hedge though, and hopefully that will be enough. Also, we may have to move a low shelf in our bathroom and put a lock on the shed. These are all things that we have never worried about but the social worker has to dot every i and cross every t.

Sounds like it went really well. It's great to hear that the only issues are things to do with fences, shelves and locks!
I've been wondering what they'll do about our safety check, considering our house won't be ready til Christmas time or so. Hopefully they can do an addendum/update or something.
Congrats on being one step closer now! You'll breeze through the rest of the interviews, for sure.
Excellent! It sounds like these are all things that can be addressed without too much worry. (I mean, easier to change your fence than to change your family, for instance.)
Hooray! Those all sound like relatively simple issues, so that is good! Congratulations on a sucessfull first interview.
