Did you get any feedback on this? I may be in a similar spot.

Yep! I was advised to be apologetic (but not over apologize) and simply explain that a scheduling conflict has arose and that I am wondering if it is possible to reschedule to one of the other interview dates. The site I requested that from was very nice in their response and offered me one of the days that still had openings. I was super nervous but it went great!

I feel ya on that one.

Ditto. At least they told us to consider them for postdoc. Sigh. I've heard this VA is so hard to get an interview at. Smh.

I saw Montefiore/Einstein child on here but has anyone heard from the other tracks? I got an email last week saying this week they'd notify so my hope is dwindling as the week comes to an end!

I haven't heard from them either (for adult track). They did say they'd let us know this week, so most likely tomorrow!

Same boat, I said the same thing! As if hearing it once wasn't sufficient!

 

[professional_student_2]

Haha no worries, neuroticism is to be expected 🙂
They called me at about 2pm pacific time

Oh man, I was on a flight during this time. What do I do on the (very) slight chance that they called me and I missed it???

 

[Cogdissonance]

One of the girls from my program did, but I don't know what date she got it

Do you happen to know if it was a mass email or personal? Thanks

Anyone hear anything from CMHI at Fort Logan? WCPIP KUMedicine?

 

[IWillSurvive]

I'm waiting to hear from them too! Last years thread shows invitation were offered on 12/11 and their APPIC profile show 12/12 as their notification date.

Ugh, I'll be in an interview all day that day. Talk about stressful!

Oh dear! That is quite the predicament. They did leave me a message when I missed their call, but I'm wondering if being on a flight impacts that in any way.

I haven't heard anything from Fort Logan... ugh this waiting is painful!

I applied to Montefiore Child Track and haven't heard anything yet! We will see.

I'm pretty sure a friend got a rejection for the adult track...neuro? Not sure if there are two seperate tracks or not.

Great, Thanks! I figure it must happen more than once.

I have not heard from them yet, either.

There's just adult, child/adolescent, and combined. I am still waiting to hear as well, I applied to adult.

Got a mass email from University of New Hampshire's CCC that they are not going to admit an internship cohort for this year due to lots of "changes" in the agency. I'm disappointed and also sort of annoyed! If they had figured that out a little over a month ago I could have saved about $50 and time writing the cover letter.

EDIT: Well, apparently I'm late to the game and this was discussed upthread, but yeah. Sad. 🙁

Fear not! If your phone is off or set to airplane mode, then your calls should go to voicemail, right? And when your phone reconnects after the flight, it should show you if you missed a call I believe. Maybe you'll hear from the site today! 🙂

Anticipating receiving a rejection from this site today and already feeling 😢 How on earth does one stand out among nearly 400 applications when all of us are so qualified?

In other news, I keep answering the phone super enthusiastically for what turns out to be telemarketing calls 🤣

updated.

I received the schedule for an interview and I have six back-to-back individual interviews. No breaks. Ahhhh 😱

You do realize we all want you to pump your friend for intel now haha When? What track? Was she facing northward? What house was the moon in? The rabid psychologists of this forum need answers!!!!

Ok then she was rejected from the adult track via email. Perhaps this is good news for other people that didn't a rejection?

I think some of us are probably close to trusting the moon and direction thing... (It's waxing gibbous and I have no idea what "house" means for a moon, so I'm just gonna keep facing south.)

Has anyone heard from Child and Adolescent Behavioral Health? Their notification date isn't until the 12th but I'm just checking.

That's ok! I just found my first impulse to ask a million questions of someone who probably doesn't have answers humorous and wanted to point out the absurdity of the new heights of hysteria we are all reaching. 🤣🤣

Super excited- this is a top site for me. Also, I hope this gives everyone out there some hope because A) it proves invites happen on a rolling basis (at KCHC at least) and B) the director was very accommodating with my schedule.

Home stretch, yall! We can do this!!

I just told my friend the exact same thing
My phone rang and I go flying through the house like a cheetah LOL
I told my mom she has to pretext before she calls because I am on high alert LOL
At the very least I have enhanced my ninja skills so if this psychologist thing doesn't pan out ......
