💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

No responses

What was the most interesting question?

Nothing really. My first interview was just a conversation. My second was slightly bizarre because the interviewer was totally unprepared.

What was the most difficult question?

I was just thrown off a bit by my second interviewer. She obviously hadn't done that many interviews before and had just found a book about interviewing. She just kept asking me generic questions that weren't really about medicine or going to medical school. It kind of threw me off. I felt like I was interviewing for a consulting job
