Since I was learning just as much about their company and possible future positions as they were learning about me I felt more at ease during the interview. Overall the time spent went well and if anything helped me with interview experience too. I went on an informational interview for a company and considered it very useful.

I guess it would make sense - you're learning more about the company, and showing desire to work for them, and learn more about specific jobs and duties.
