💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
It was the least formal of my interviews. They wanted it to be a discussion. I needed keep the conversation going by asking a lot of questions myself.
How did you prepare for the interview?
Come up with a list of questions. Research the people interviewing you. SDN. Mock interviews.
What impressed you positively?
I really liked going out for lunch with the students. Since we were outside of the Pharmacy building, I really felt like I had the opportunity to get to know them with out the pressure of being formal for an interview.
What impressed you negatively?
Dean Perry yelled at many of the interviewees for having their schedules on their phones instead of on paper. She also yelled at people for having more than 3 questions prepared. Your interviewers will expect you to ask more than 3 questions!
