How did you prepare for the interview?

read my apps, sdn, the schools website, kept up to date with current health issues

What impressed you positively?

The students were all really enthusiastic and the facilites were really nice- alot of different hospitals in one area.

What impressed you negatively?

The interviewers seemed to want to make the interview &quot;relaxed&quot; but I felt that I would have rather had a more serious interview.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish that I had known that you could have two interviewers at once. I was under the impression that even if you had two interviewers they interviewed you individually- this definately changed the dynamic of the interview.
