2013-2014 APPIC (internship) interview thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
What's the word on St. Luke/Roosevelt's Hospital?? Eagerly waiting by my email... +pissed+

Omg, I KNOW! I've been obsessively searching this thread for news of them! Last week someone posted on here that they had received an invite by email, but that there were like 10 names on the email list so they will probably send out another round (they did this last year, too!).
 
+1 Baltimore rejection. Was expecting (and not actually too upset) about that one. The only thing that threw me off was that the email had an attachment! Sneaky sneaky.
 
Received SAPIC interview notification about an hour ago (personalized email) but it went into my spam folder because the message had no subject, no body, and a pdf attachment. Check your spam! They offer 3 interview dates (1/7, 1/8, and 1/16) on a first-come first-serve basis, and no phone interviews.
 
Interview invite to Southeast Human Service Center (SEHSC) in Fargo, ND via generic e-mail.
Dates January 21, 2014 or January 22, 2014.
 
Rejections -- Terre Haute, Psychiatric institute of Washington - emails today, personalized.

Interview -- Kane County Diagnostic Center - phone call
 
Rejections are coming in....

1. Central Texas VA generic
2. UMB/Baltimore VA generic
+1 Baltimore, and Atlanta VA as well. (Atlanta VA letter was actually quite kind, I thought.)

Now just waiting on a Memphis rejection to be *done*.
 
"Dear Applicant", non-mass e-mail invite from Alaska Psychiatric Institute - Forensic track. Skype interviews on January 13, 14, 15, 20, 21, or 22. I hope everyone continues to receive positive news!

Has anyone heard from Memphis VA Neuro? It seems like general went out earlier today, if I'm not mistaken.

Rutgers Biomedical & Hlth Sciences-Forensic Track
Springfield Psychiatric Hospital
Trenton Psychiatric Hospital

Mass email rejection to Rochester AMC...expecting it. Just two more rejections to round this out, waiting on SUNY Upstate and Charleston Consortium.
Anyone know what the deal is with WVU Charleston? Do they send out rejections?

Generic invite from Kansas State U! WOO HOO! I got an interview!!!!!!! Phone interviews the first two weeks of January. Subject of the email was "Kansas State University Counseling Services Requests an Interview" so nothing vague or misleading about it. I am so happy right now.
YAY!!!! SO Much congratulations - having one feels SOOOO much better than none. I'm in the one interview boat too!
 
Just got a rejection from St. Louis VA. Not surprising, was expecting that. Still waiting on Charleston Consortium as well, but don't have high hopes.

Still waiting on Rutgers Forensic and Adult tracks. Also the Rutgers in Piscataway Hispanic track.

+ 1 for rejection from Lenox Hill Hospital.
 
Citrus Health Network email invite via "Dear prospective intern" PDF. Interview dates are Jan 8th, 13th, and 15th.
Was the email itself addressed to you or "dear applicant"?
 
Anyone hear from the Buffalo VA? Thanks!

It's the last one on my list... and my schedule is packed with 10 interviews. Hard to know how to fit more in unless they are later in January... how are others dealing with that?
 
To all of you who applied to the Ann Arbor VA - if you can afford the travel, I would suggest going to the open house. I spoke to some of the prospective interns last year and they said they were so happy to have gone to get a feel for the site. Also, there's yummy pizza 🙂

I also did a year-long practicum in the PTSD clinic, if anyone has questions
 
Nothing but rejections so far today.. this is pretty disheartening.. So far I have 2 interviews (both APA), one at my top site…

Rejections:
Southern Louisiana Internship Consortium
Southeast Human Services (Fargo)

Waiting on :
Springfield Hospital
Mendota Mental Health
Kern County
Haymount Institute
University of Washington Tacoma
Central Texas Internship in Clinical and Forensic Psychology

Congrats to everyone who has heard good news!! I'm still hoping and waiting!

Hang in there guys!
