Interview Feedback

Open Interview Coach
Reported experiences · 2 to 5 years ago

They really just want to get to know you as a person, just be yourself! Not all answers have to be clinical based, they want to know more about how you handle life situations as well

Preparation notes · 2 to 5 years ago

MMI portion is acting situations but do not test you on anything knowledge based.

Reported experiences · 2 to 5 years ago

It’s an all day affair. Some tough questions that caught me off guard.

Reported experiences · 2 to 5 years ago

They walk you through the curriculum very thoroughly and make the interview just feel like a conversation.

Preparation notes · 2 to 5 years ago

SDN, common interview questions, reviewed application thoroughly

Reported experiences · 2 to 5 years ago

Relax and have fun. It's basically a conversation about your experiences. The MMI portion of the interview was kind of awkward at times but still kinda fun and not tense.

Preparation notes · 2 to 5 years ago

They are genuinely interested in getting to know you. You will be better off with light prep instead of rehearsing answers and sounding like a robot.

N/A

Reported experiences · 2 to 5 years ago

Everyone was very friendly and supportive which allowed me to relax and be myself.

Preparation notes · 2 to 5 years ago

Reviewed my secondary, SDN, practiced common interview questions, reviewed information about the school that is listed on the website.

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

Although I was not very stressed in the interview itself, I second-guessed everything I said afterwards. They asked 2-3 difficult questions in the Traditional interview and those caught me off guard. The MMIs were amazing. Try your best to not second-guess everything like me and just look forward to hearing back from them.

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

They asked me some pretty difficult questions.

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

They were very friendly and knowledgeable about my application

Preparation notes · 5 to 10 years ago

I ran through common questions that are asked in interviews

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

It’s still a new school- which has some pros but means it doesn’t have a reputation yet.

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

The school as a whole- curriculum, staff- everything! It wasn’t high on my list before the interview, but it is a prime contender now!

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

Be outgoing, be curious, and be hungry

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

Nothing so far.

Reported experiences · 5 to 10 years ago

How personable they were in general. The quickness of their email replies.

Preparation notes · 5 to 10 years ago

Start thinking about MMIs. There are always three different answers: The extremes and the inbetween.
