2013 APPIC Internship Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Does anyone know (perhaps based on last years' Phase II) at what point no news is bad news? So far I've received two invites (by the way, one that hasn't been mentioned yet is St. Vincent Neuropsych Institute in Indianapolis), but was expecting/hoping to hear more by now.

same, with 2 so far. im just figuring that once s.o posts that they have heard that its prob a rejection if i havent heard netting. there are still quite a few sites that i applied to that no one has mentioned one way or the other so.......im just hoping for now.😳
 
Invite for interview at University of Florida yesterday (3/4). Got a phone call followed up an email to set up phone interview times.
 
I just received an email for an in person interview with Monterey County Behavioral Health on March 11& 12.
I matched CAPIC and have to turn this one down.
🙁
Bummer...

I hope that other people are hearing good news!

Just out of curiosity, do you live in California? I applied there, too and did not know they were doing in person interviews.

Sending positive vibes to all the others going through this process! It is comforting to know others going through this process too!

I got an invite to USF CAPS which offers either in-person or skype interviews

Also, the Comprehensive Outpatient Services emailed and followed up with a phone call to schedule an in-person interview.
 
Wishing everyone the very best for Phase II.
 
Got an email invite for a phone interview with Boy's Town Grand Island through the Nebraska Consortium
 
Was it USF CAPS or UCF CAPS? I did not recall USF being on the Phase II list.

I'm not the OP, so I don't know which one they meant, but USF (as in, University of San Francisco) CAPS was definitely on the Phase II list.
 
So stressful. I'm really tired of not being able to sleep...pun not intended.

I'm with you. In addition to insomnoia, this lovely process has also brought me a week long case of the flu and two stomach flus, all within the last month and a half. What a ****ty process, pun intended.
 
Phone call about interview at Carson Center for Adults and Families. I was called on March 1st!

Still waiting.. hoping for others 🙂

When did you receive that one? Waiting to hear on that position and the one with M-M rural in the consortium.

All - I wonder if the current running list (thank you for posting) has a slight error. I, too, received the email from Primary Children's Hospital about being "in the running" and the change in the position but I have not received an invitation to interview. Has someone else received an actual interview offer?
 
Just out of curiosity, do you live in California? I applied there, too and did not know they were doing in person interviews.

Hi, there!
I do live in Northern California, about 200 miles away from this site.
I have another friend who also received the invitation and she lives in the same city as I do.
She did receive her email a few hours after I did, though, so the invitations might still be coming.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for good news for you, soon!

I received an interview offer from Newark Public Schools on 2/28, Boys Town Grand Island on 3/1, Scott & White Residency Program on 3/3 (a Sunday!), and Virginia Beach City Public Schools on 3/4.

Has anyone heard from:
Humboldt Unified School District (Arizona Psych Training Consortium)
Deerfield High School (Illinois SP Consortium)
Child and Family Psychology Center (Illinois Psych Assoc Consortium)
Jewish Board of Family & Children's Services - Adolescent Track
Arise Academy (LASP*IC
The May Institute- ABS track
Starr Commonwealth
University of Florida Health Science Center - Clinical-Child/Pediatric Psychology Division

I'm hoping some of these places have rolling offers for interviews...especially the CASD track at Munroe-Meyer 🙁

You must be in school psychology 🙂 I think someone had mentioned that they heard from Jewish Board of Family & Children's Services and Unv of Florida, but it may be rolling invites.
 
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this one yet, but I had a friend who received an interview at Scott & White Healthcare Peds Track today.

I had my phone interview with Ohio University this morning. Probably the most nervous I have been through this whole process!!
 
Still waiting on:

-USF
-San Bernardino Co General Track
-University of Central Florida
-University of Idaho
-Southern Illinois University
-Indiana University/Purdue
-New Mexico State
-University of Washington
 
got my car stuck in the snow on the way to prac so it looks like ill get to do my phone interviews today from the comfort of my own home instead of sneaking out of the hospital for a few minutes. It should be good news but now I'm all flustered bc I have been picturing the interviews in a different location. ahhh, well, I guess id b nervous no matter what 🙂
 
More waiting!

My list consists heavily of VAs, some of which I've heard from but many of which I haven't. I hope that we will all hear some good news today!
 
Nervous Nelly here... I had my first phone interview this morning and it was SO short (only 15 minutes of actual questions, plus 15 minutes to ask my own questions). I wonder how I can possibly stand out among so many applicants in such little time. Does anyone have any idea approximately how many people sites interview?
 
Received a rejection from University of Oklahoma Health Science Center.

Received an interview from Kentucky River Community Care.
 
No interviews yet, remaining positive and telling myself another year to gain experience and finish the dissertation could actually be a very GOOD thing. I got an email rejection from U of OK earlier and the subject line was "No longer under consideration for the University of Oklahoma Health Science Center." I wish more sites were that considerate and succinct. 🙂

Mailman CCD
Nebraska Consortium (autism program)
Colorado University School of Medicine (JFK track)
Woodhull Medical School
LAS*PIC

Not all sites will do interviews for phase II. Some just tell you that you are in "running" and will rank you. That is why it is labeled Interviews/Notification or whatever it is.
 
I honestly wasn't anxious until last night when I realized that the more time that passes the less likely I am to hear from a site. This is such a cruel process! I'm jumping every time I get an email just like I was during phase 1.

Here's to hoping for more interviews (and that some sites are doing rolling invites for interviews).
 
I believe the Primary Children's e-mail stated that they would extend interview offers to those that were still interested. That made me think that they were indeed having interviews, but I could be mistaken.
 
I just heard from Munroe-Meyer for an interview with their CASD track. Their invites must be on a rolling basis. There's still hope!

Staying positive as well. Has anyone heard from:

I just received an email to interview at Southern Utah University. Interviews are done over the phone on 3/11 and 3/12.

Good luck to everyone today. This is not an easy process.

That is good to know. I did not apply there so I didn't know how the e-mail was worded. I will take it of the list for now. If someone hears about an interview please post or message me so I can add them back.

Thanks!

I applied there but did not get this email - should I assume rejection or that I was somehow left off the list??

I'm not sure there's a right answer to this. The way I've approached it is that if others have heard, and I haven't, then it is as good as a rejection. I guess it's better to be happily surprised than disappointed. I believe I read that there are others who also did not receive the e-mail. If I were in that position, I would assume I was not in the "running."

Was oklahoma a mass email? I didn't hear anything and want to know if I should get my hopes up. 🙂.
 
The Oklahoma rejection e-mail did look as if it were a mass e-mail. So, if you have not heard anything, that is probably a good thing. They might be sending interview e-mails out next.

Hey, I only have one interview so far (maybe that's all I'll end up with). It's scheduled for Friday and is only 30 minutes. I had the same thought as you...how is that long enough? But hopefully it is. 🙂

I also asked the person how many applications they received. She said that that particular program received~150 applications and is currently interviewing less than a third of them. Not sure that helps, but that's all I know at this point.....

I'm driving myself a little nuts with the waiting! I've only heard from 1 of my sites, and people on here have heard from another 3 of mine, but radio silence from the rest! Eeek.

Haven't heard from Mailman yet either. Also got the rejection from Oklahoma.

Anyone hear from U Alabama?

I know someone said they heard from Henry Ford, but anyone else, either good or bad?

Ugh, this is not fun!
 
so my morning interview went terrible but my afternoon interview seemed to go well. These are the only two sites I have heard from so far. getting extremely nervous.

has anyone heard from:
coatesville VA or northern california VA (neuro tracks) ?

no, i havent heard anything from UAB
 
Did not get interview offer from Southern Utah U. Just got the email a couple minutes ago. It was nice of them to let me know. I figured I wasn't in the running because others already heard from them..just wanted to let you know.
 
I heard from Henry Ford on the 4th saying they were interested and to let them know if I was interested in interviewing.
 
Was oklahoma a mass email? I didn't hear anything and want to know if I should get my hopes up. 🙂.

Yup! "Dear Applicant:"-style rejection. If you didn't get it I would guess you are in the running. Good luck! 🙂
