I have a question for anyone on here who's had a WCVM interview, be it current WCVM students or people who have interviewed this year or in previous years
Did you find during your interviews that the panel ignored significant (well, at least in your opinion significant) things on your resume, and instead asked you about unrelated areas you don't have experience in? For example, I shadowed a couple of equine veterinarians over the course of last summer as my experience has mainly been small animal focused. During my interview they asked me all about how commercial chickens are raised and a lot of food animal stuff (I guess because I have bird experience? But nothing working with any sort of food animals) but they never touched once on my actual large animal vet experience. Seems like a drag to put in a summer gaining that experience to have them not ask anything about it. I totally understand that they want to see you think on your feet and make you defend your opinion on controversial issues, etc, but still kind of a bummer to have experience in certain areas and they don't get to see it.
So I guess my question is does anyone know if they take ALL of your experiences into account when they make their decision, even if they didn't talk to you about them in the interview? I have no idea if anyone will know the answer to this question, but it's been bugging me for a month now so thought it was worth a shot haha
