What impressed you negatively?
The interviewer was 25 minutes late. She had not read my file and seemed not to have known she had an interview that day. She answered 3 phone calls during the interview, cutting off my answers to do so. Very insulting and discourteous considering how much time and money and effort I put into my application, career and journey to get to MCV.
What are your general comments?
Very disappointing. I feel that I performed well under the circumstances but it was very unprofessional. I don't think that arriving 25 minutes late and answering 3 phone calls during an interview is a way to get to know a potential student or to make them feel valued.
