"If you could be the head of any non-profit what would it be and what would you do?" Report Response | I was asked this question too

"The commitment of the school to helping the poor and the enthusiasm of the students." Report Response
"THE INTERVIEW FORMAT (see below). Plus their teaching hospital is shutdown. There was no tour of the campus and the people there weren't particularly friendly." Report Response
"The interview format really threw me for a loop and I did not perform well. One interview is a normal one-on-one which went well, but the other interview is a ''group interview.'' How it worked was half the interviewees sit around a table with several med student interviewers behind them. You are given a task (ours was to hire a project coordinator for ovarian cancer screening i.e. list the qualifications you would look for, how you would recruit them, and what interview questions you would ask) and supposed to work it out together as a group while the med students right down comments. I'm pretty shy in large groups of strangers and given the high pressure I really blew it and said almost nothing. Maybe I'm bitter but I felt it was competitive cooperation and I don't think I would do well in a school with that kind of attitude. There seemed a kind of forced camaraderie there which really turned me off. However I think for the right student it might be great. " Report Response
"Drew was my top choice beforehand and maybe I'm just disappointed in my performance, but I really didn't want to go there afterwards. It would be a good school for some people, I just think I'm too old and independent for the atmosphere there. " Report Response
