💬 Interview Process
How did you prepare for the interview?
Read MCW interview feedback, reviewed MCW's website, read a little about healthcare reform but it didn't come up
What was the most difficult question?
What do you think being professional means? I was caught a little off guard when the student interviewer asked me this.
What impressed you positively?
How student-focused the school is. Since MCW doesn't have an undergrad, the med school students are the number 1 priority. They've also got nice new buildings and really nice people there.
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing really...if anything I guess I'd say the student tour leaders spent most of the time talking to each other than trying to give us a good tour, but they were still receptive to any questions people had.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
If you're coming from the airport and going to a hotel (my flight was delayed and I missed the social + student hosting), you can take the Airport Connection shuttle service to your hotel. It's cheaper than a taxi, and you can arrange the ride right in the baggage claim. I stayed at Holiday Inn Express and the fare was $18, verses $30 something for a taxi out there.
