What are your general comments?
Interviewers were not very friendly - a family member who came with me even commented that when she saw me exiting the interview space with them, they seemed a lot colder than the others. This made it kind of difficult to talk to them, and the interview had a few stony silences.
💬 Interview Process

What impressed you positively?
How great the med students were! Extremely friendly, and the wine and cheese hosted by the Med Soc was excellent.
What impressed you negatively?
The interviewers were not very friendly - a lot of time was spent looking down at their papers instead of at me, so there was very little interaction.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Leave your jacket, portfolio, umbrella, and other things at home - go into the lobby wearing only your interview suit and carrying minimal things (one purse max!)
Oh, make sure to dress up too. Everyone is in formal business attire - pretty much dressed to the nines.
