Interview Experience

"The day was met with 4 30 min interviews with faculty and 2 individual interviews with residents and 1 Q&A session. Everyone was fairly nice. Everyone kept mentioning how this is a very busy program and suggested not ranking it if we think we cannot meet their expectations. Felt a little judgemental sometimes. "

"The night before, the residents did a Q&A for the interview candidates. The morning of, the program coordinator shared a little bit about the program while waiting for the Program Director to give a powerpoint presentation about the program. We then moved into a waiting room with the other candidates and had the chance to chat with each other and occasionally with the program coordinator. We interviewed with the PD, faculty and the program coordinator. "
