I can only attest to my own experiences. I have Practicum experiences in children's hospitals, but have been rejected from every children's hospital I applied to. However, I have a VA interview and an interview at a medical center. I have no VA experience.

I have been told and may not apply to all sites that some of the medical and universities sites want you to have more research ....I don't know if that's something that you have a disparity in between ours and research and clinical hours. Also they want to know that you're going to work in a hospital when you're done and not private practice or some other setting..... at least that's what I've been told

I received an invite from them on 12/01/16 for interview dates of 12/15, 12/19, 01/09, 01/05. Sorry I didn't post it!
 
Does anyone have an interview with Institute for multicultural counseling and education services in LA?? I was given a January 13th appointment but I already have an interview that day. Anyone willing to trade with me?? I emailed the director and he said that interview dates are set in stone and if a slot opens up he will let me know. AKA i have to arrange a switch myself. Let me know!!

This one was a surprise for me. They were one of my less competitive sites and I was a good fit. Oh well.

The email was also really strangely worded. I had to reread it to make sure it was a rejection.

Same for me. I'm wondering if a lot of people applied to it as a safety...that email was strange though

Right I agree with you. I have publications and I expressed that I want to work in a hospital. But I'm in a PsyD program and I don't think hospitals are crazy about that.

Has anyone heard anything at all from the University of Michigan's Counseling Center? They have today listed as the notification date, but it's starting to get pretty late to be sending emails. Last year they sent notifications on the 15th.
