Rejection
11/20 at 10 pm!!!

Literally brushing my teeth and getting rejected. Nothing but rejections for me! I plan to eat an entire pie on Thursday to console myself. Extra whip cream if I keep getting these rejections...

I can’t believe they’re sending these out so late. That’s just cruel...sigh. Wishing y’all the best.
 
In the spirit of getting rejections at a ridiculously late hour (like, no, can we not?), this has also been super helpful to me lately and is by the same artist

I'd call pest control and your friendly neighborhood psychiatrist. In that order.

I have stared at past threads and calendars some more and it appears that Utah UNI emails on Tuesdays or Thursdays. Or that was a complete coincidence in the past. Who knows, really, but today's Tuesday, so it's something to obsess about. 😛

Umm.....I've never noticed that before! Thank you so much for mentioning it! I'll now know who to call out when I'm constantly refreshing all day and night and start feeling let down that nobody is posting. :laugh:

I feel like the order should be reversed. Just count yourself lucky I'm not a training director. I'd be giving serious thought to your risk assessment and triage competencies. 😛

Oh my god you're right, TAKE NOTE for when this exact scenario inevitably comes up during interviews. We can a learn from my oversight. 😉

I didn’t know that was what it was either! Love it
Hi everyone
 
Got my first 2 interview invites on back to back days whoooo! 😀 :cat: :woot:

-Full Site Name: University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center (I saw that one up already but in case the tracks or other info helps anyone)
-Track (if applicable): Clinical Child, Neurodevelopmental, and Early Childhood
-Invite or rejection: Invite (my first whooooo!!)
-Date of Notification: 11/20
-How You Were Notified: mass email
-Interview Date(s): 1/5, 1/22
-If & How You’re Staying Sane: Was barely holding it together and obsessively refreshing my email before I got this first one, definitely felt a bit of relief since then!!


-Full Site Name: Kennedy Krieger Institute
-Track (if applicable): Behavior Management Clinic, Child and Family Therapy Clinic (full year and half-year paired track)
-Invite or rejection: Invite!!! :soexcited:
-Date of Notification: 11/21 at 7:59am (4:59am in my time zone 😴:yawn: saw it closer to 9am EST haha)
-How You Were Notified: mass email
-Interview Date(s): 1/4, 1/8, 1/9, 1/18, 1/23
-If & How You’re Staying Sane: Can finally feel a little bit more sane now that I have 2 interviews *AND* defended my proposal! A Thanksgiving vacation (not with my family 😉) will also help!


P.S. I love you all, you're the best group of people I've never met 🙂 & my heart goes out to all of you who got rejections at 10PM!!!!! :inpain::nailbiting: Not OK! :nono:
 
Ok, with each rejection I receive I immediately consider applying to more places while there's still time. Does anyone feel this way. This year there just happen to be hurricanes (which devastated cities, states, and countries); but has led to some sites extending their due dates. Is that a sign I should apply to more places? Wise mind says "no, you've maxed out in terms of returns on applications [20] and its still early". Emotion mind says "what's another $300, keep adding sites, screw history and statistics, apply to more places". The struggle is real.

You're welcome. Yes - I am pretty observant and helpful. I'm going to be a doctor (or something).

Depending on the state you live in, the hummingbird might eat the insect (as would a lizard). I think you're fine.
 
I can't believe someone in my cohort applied to One site last year... And matched... I'm feeling pretty discouraged with 23! Sorry I had to vent

Same. I am also experiencing a great sense of guilt and regret as I see invites go up for places that I decided not to apply to, but thought I would be competitive at/a good match.

Hey! I also got this as my first invite! Have you heard back about dates yet? What's the expected turnaround time on confirming our interview dates, do you think?

EDIT: Never mind, they just got back to me! A lot of anxiety over nothing.
