⭐ Overall Impressions

How did the interview impress you?

Negatively ☹️

What was the stress level of the interview?

9 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress

What are your general comments?

The interview was awful...it was very short and in a room full of other candidates who could openly hear everything that was being said...not only is that unnerving, but the sheer noise was deafening..I could hardly concentrate on the questions at hand. I was totally unimpressed. It made me feel as though the staff was not making a strong effort to get to know their candidates. In addition, there were far too many people at this interview...there were about 40 people...either they do not have enough interview dates...(I was offered a choice between 2 days)...Or, they are just interviewing too many candidates...it was just overall a cold day compared to my other interviews.
💬 Interview Process

What was the most interesting question?

I don't remember any interesting questions at this not so interesting interview :).

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over and memorized all of the school's goals, mission statement, and statistics.

What was the most difficult question?

None of the questions were especially difficult, just general...too general.

What impressed you positively?

Not a whole lot. Supised that this is supposed to be one of America's Best Dental Schools.

What impressed you negatively?

The entire staff seemed either outwardly rude and/or arrogant or simply just fake. They were very prideful in their school...a little too much. I thought the closing comments regarding "If its meant to be you will decide to go blue" were designed to make me feel ill, at best.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

What an over-rated school this is.
