💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

See above. That's pretty much it, everything else pretty conversational.

What was the most interesting question?

If I were an HIV+ surgeon, would I continue to practice/tell my patients?

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, studied ethical questions, re-read apps, slept

What was the most difficult question?

(See above) Do your patients have a right to know?

What impressed you positively?

One of my interviewers (who I later heard from a nurse friend was very difficult to work with) was cool, in a difficult sort of way. Interesting converstation. Oh yes, and the fact that "almost residents" are now being considered as "true residents" for acceptance (not tuition) purposes.

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities are almost non-existant. And the two doctors interviewing me were very difficult to pin down for a date/time.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I knew pretty much everything ahead of time.
