Negatively ☹️

The interviewers were pretty friendly but seemed incredibly bored and put out of place half the time. I found one gazing out the window mid-interview.
💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

What are your weaknesses?

What was the most interesting question?

How I would handle a conflict.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Been to and researched many schools.

What was the most difficult question?

None.

What impressed you positively?

The school tries to impress you with the building, pretty to look at, but what is really inside???

What impressed you negatively?

Found out through students that the place is a wreck with problems concerning administration. The school is owned by a brother and sister (who also own half the town) that are never there (they are the Dean's). Several students were upset with things that had gone on. They honestly said that they didn't feel like the 'top dogs' cared about any of the students, only about prestige and how much money they were making. They did say most of the teachers were nice, but not the greatest in general. Many are foriegn and you can't understand them supposedly..? The Anatomy Lab is sup-par. Very poor ventilation system.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That it had almost a Nazi type of atmosphere and that they can't even fill the spots for their new Florida campus.
