What are your general comments?
The day didn't seem extremely organized; the directions told you to go to one place but then everybody was congregating (and they expected you to be) elsewhere. Basically, you get there and wait for everybody else to get there, then you hear a little speech about the interview process, then you break into groups to take the tour. The tour was to last 45 minutes or so, but some people had interviews in 30 minutes, so it kind of put them in an awkward position. Then, after the tour, you can eat snacks and talk to students for a minute, but they didn't really have much advice, nor seem super excited to be there. It was kind of weird, nobody tried to sell you on the school or anything, I expected them to tell me why I should consider going there.
💬 Interview Process
How did you prepare for the interview?
Look over lists of interview questions, read sections of ''Interviews for Dummies''
What impressed you positively?
The facilities were nice and up to date
What impressed you negatively?
The tour was given by a group of students, and the students seemed clique-ey, like you could tell that they didn't all like each other, something that the interviewees shouldn't have been able to see. Also, the students didn't seem proud of their school or happy to be there, even though they were giving the tour!
