What are your general comments?
The day was way too long. Everything was disorganized. I interviewed at their sister university (MWU-CCP) in Chicago and had a better experience because their agenda for the day was much more organized.
💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Why pharmacy? What motivates you?
What was the most interesting question?
Nothing surprising... they were all standard questions.
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, talked to current pharmacy students/pharmacists
What was the most difficult question?
What challenges are facing pharmacy and how would you help to solve the problems?
What impressed you positively?
The campus looks very nice. Everything was relatively new since they just started the school in the late 90s.
What impressed you negatively?
The whole day was way too long and pointless. There was a lot of down time. The entire day could have been condensed into just 3 hours. Instead, we got there at 7:45am and didn't start doing anything until 8:30am. The interview lasted 1 hour. We waited for the other group to do their interview for 1 hour (down time). Then, we went to hear financial aid info and campus tour (information that is irrelevant unless you're actually accepted).
My friend was in a different group of interview. She got interviewers who were really mean and anal. They never smiled. When it was time to ask questions, they were still mean and rude. However, my interviewers were very nice. Therefore, I can't say the same thing for my own experience, but I was surprised at how mean they were to my friend and her entire group.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
There was a lot of free time and that some interviewers could be mean and rude.
