How did you prepare for the interview?

Mainly SDN interview questions. I did mock interviews at the career center of my university along with my podiatrist that I shadowed. I also recorded my face/voice to catch and correct my interview habits and practiced in front of a mirror to practice being more casual/conversational and friendly. My interview for NYCPM turned out be a virtual interview over Zoom, so I had some notes posted in front of me in case I blanked out lol.

What impressed you positively?

Professors were both so friendly and welcoming. The entire interview felt conversational and they were very open to sharing their own NYCPM memories as students and how the program has improved along the years.
