💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Tell me a little about yourself.
What was the most interesting question?
Talking about the state of medical practice today was interesting to me because I had the chance to relate my own experience in the medical device industry.
How did you prepare for the interview?
Made sure to get enough rest the night before. I generally don't do much in the way of formal prep before interviews.

Describing a moment of failure was difficult for me because I tend not to perceive anything as real failures but learning experiences.
What impressed you positively?
The interview day was well-run. I liked the effusive talk given by Dean Neumeyer and the presentation regarding the academics. The separate study rooms for the students and the simulation rooms also seemed very nice.
What impressed you negatively?
I felt like we didn't get to see much of the attached medical center. It seemed hard at times to feel engaged by the student tour guides because the tour group was somewhat large.
