What are your general comments?
The interview lasted "all day". We met at 8:45 AM and were oriented as to the day's events. We sat in on a class, met with financial aid, took two tours (one of the school, complete with cadaver exposure, the second tour was with one of the teaching hospitals), ate lunch with students, then interviewed individually. The day was over around 4 PM.
💬 Interview Process
What was the most interesting question?
"You say you aren't in this for the money. How will you feel about that in your residency when you realize you make about 3$ an hour?"
How did you prepare for the interview?
I wore the most fabulous Liz Claiborne wool suit I could find, and tried very hard to "zone out" and relax the day before the interview.
What impressed you positively?
The entire day was wonderful- all of it. They have a brand new 60-million dollar building and a brand new 16-million dollar athletic center. The staff, students and interviewers were all warm and professional.
What impressed you negatively?
The hospital cafeteria's food was average.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Wear comfortable shoes. There are many tours.
