dont take notes. most of my interviews were conversations...it will totaly kill the moment when you are sitting down and writing stuff...
What about taking notes at the orientation-type talk (not at the one-on-one interview itself?)
I took notes at the orientation talk thing, because they were telling us dates on which we could expect decisions/how the admissions process progresses from here. Is that still toolish?
It would make you look like a tool.
I agree. Nothing says "tool" like taking notes during the interview
Does anyone agree that this should be the same with the interviewer? I had an interviewer that asked me twenty questions that were written on a sheet of paper with room for her to write answers below. She even asked me to slow down and repeat my answers so she could represent me well to the adcom. What a tool.
I had a similar experience where the interviewer only asked about 10 questions, never taking he eyes off his pad and only asking follow-ups like "What was the name of the hospital?" or "What agency was that?". Didn't look up at all until about 20 minutes into the interview, when he said, "Any questions for me?" Then it turned into a human:human conversation.Does anyone agree that this should be the same with the interviewer?
