Notes de l'éditeur
For the Applicant – project your unique image & gather info about the school For the School – Assess your personal characteristics (attitude, maturity, enthusiasm, commitment, etc) Clarify and/or confirm the image presented in your application Information Gathering- information not on your application Recruitment/Marketing- share about school and program
Panel: Applicant is interviewed by a couple of individuals usually with other applicants as well. Blind: Interviewer does not know any information about applicant Partial Blind: Interviewer has reviewed some application information (usually personal statement and secondary app) however does not know GPA or MCAT Open: Interviewer has every piece of information in the applicants application. Behavior Based: Questions revolve around real-world situations or the applicant must share an experience that provides an example of the question asked. Multiple Mini Interview: Students go through stations are assessed based upon different scenarios that focus on issues such as communication, ethics, critical thinking, teamwork and opinions on health care issues. If possible be familiar with the type of interview you will have at a school. Knowing what information the interviewer has potentially read about you already will be helpful. Example: In a blind interview be aware you might be sharing information that is already part of your application again. During an Open interview feel free to share new information that was not part of your application if that would be relevant.
Do a “mirror check” before leaving your house Check for tags, wrinkles Suggest students shop at a “2 nd hand” store perhaps if finances would prevent purchasing a new suit. Also, students could borrow from a friend- be creative.
Be familiar with the school you have applied to and are now interviewing with: What are the strengths of that school and perhaps how they align with your own strengths and interests. This could prompt questions to the interviewer at the end.
