What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

If you could interview someone from the news, who would it be and what would you ask them? ps- They usually have the interviewees write a short, 10 minute essay before lunch. The topic for my day was what I would do if I won 10 mill. in the lotto.

nothing

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

My interview experience was positive overall. The first interview was a little short (20 min or so) and I was asked the wacky manhole question, but my second was much better. My interviewer ( a med student) was more relaxed and it was very conversational. The questions were the easy type I'd prepared for so there were no suprises there.
