How did you prepare for the interview?

Mock interview by the UH career services. I learnt about this website from there and it helped a lot.

What impressed you positively?

The interviewer, Dr. Wallace, he is really a nice intelligent guy.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

My interview started at 8:15am and I got there at 6:30am. If I had known that it would take me a short time to get there I would have relaxed and gotten some more sleep. I was out there in the cold and all alone in the street because the building was locked.

What are your general comments?

There were about 20 people interviewed on that day including me. We all had different scheduling times and to some extent different items. I had my one-on-one interview with Dr. Wallace. He was very nice and funny. I guess he was impressed when I told him I was so early for the interview because it meant I was serious about what I wanted. Also I had made a list of questions to ask him which also impressed him(I came prepared). After that was the preparation for the group discussion and the essay writing. I guess the topic for the essay was hard. We were asked to write only in pens. I saw one of the applicants really attacking his paper, scribbling and scratching out. His paper was really a mess. I guess that gave me confidence that I was not alone in thinking the topic was hard and I actually did a decent job(my paper was very neat). The group discussion was very interesting. We(6 applicants) were all laughing and making decisions. For a moment I forgot it was an interview and I was discussing with friends. We all felt at ease with each other. The scenario was: Six of us went on a camping expedition and one of us was attacked by a bear and left unconscious. We had to decide on the fastest way to get him medical attention given a list of items which we took on our trail. We had to prioritize the items in order of importance and choose the best strategy.
