2018-2019 APPIC Internship Interview Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Is this Children's Institute? I'm thinking we will hear before Christmas, but I thought that was really weird.
Yes, that is the site I’m talking about. I really hope it’s sooner rather than later! Wouldn’t make sense to send out later but who knows ‍
 
Any news from the following Counseling Center sites??:

UT Austin
UC Santa Barbara
University of Washington
Purdue
University of Wisconsin Madison (assuming the original post about this was trolling)

Yes, this is one of just a couple I'm still waiting on. I also saw the 1/10 notification date listed when I checked back on APPIC... was hoping that was a mistake (or typo... 12/10??) Not sure how a site can notify so late and expect people to make travel plans within a week or so, since their open house is in "mid-January"?? 😳

Did you get confirmation of your interview date? I called and confirmed a date pretty immediately on the 27th but have yet to receive an email confirmation with a schedule..

Anyone else waiting to hear back from CHOC and Phoenix Children's Hospital? I know they've already sent out invites. They're technically in my "waiting-to-be-rejected" pile, but I'm also holding on to 1% hope...

Waiting for these last two rejections and it feels like I'm in a relationship with a guy who is really distant recently, maybe checking out girls and taking their numbers (and thinks I don't know, HA!), and I just want it to work out between us - but also preparing myself for him to eventually break up with me. CHOC and Phoenix need to just break up with me, real quick.

I am waiting on CHOC as well. I honestly feel like the rejection is coming soon.

Goodbye, last shot at getting back near my immediate family :hello:
 
Hello dear friends, I'm not sure what I would have done without you. I know I haven't been active but I actively laugh at the witty posts all day. They make this process somewhat bearable. I have a question for all of you. I interviewed last week at my number one site. They gave us a paper to fill out when we first walked in and ushered us into a room. I had a question about it so I roamed the hallway to find the nice coordinator to ask her what she meant. A very nice lady stopped me and asked me if I needed something. I introduced myself and so did she but I didn't catch her name. When I told her my name she said "aaah yes I read your application". I was a little confused and didn't say anything, politely asked my question, thanked her, and walked away. Then I realized she was the CLINICAL DIRECTOR whom I had read a ton about and loved her work etc. etc. I eventually interviewed with her but I can't stop obsessing over our first interaction. Do you think I screwed it up? Do you think she thought I dismissed her comment? The interview went fine I think.

Probably not, it sounds like you were polite and didn't say anything offensive. I think they understand that we're going to be meeting a ton of people and it's not always going to "click" when you run into someone important.

I agree. It sounds like overall it went good!!

I'm with the others on this, not catching someone's name or just knowing who they are is understandable and it sounds like you were polite.

Don't overthink it. It's hard to know so many faces. I am trying to remember point people but some sites have huge lists of faculty that I can't keep straight.
 
Looks like the OP hasn't been updated in about a week.

I'm sure some of these have been had invites sent out, but the ones I'm waiting on are:

Department of State Hospitals-Napa
WestCoast Children's Clinic/Internship Training Program
The Help Group/Training Department
Sharp HealthCare/Doctoral Internship in Clinical Psychology
Lucile Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford/Children's Health Council/Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
California Pacific Medical Center/Department of Psychiatry


Currently sitting at 2 interviews and 7 rejections. :drowning:


Awhile back Lucile Packard invites got posted and I think they all listed it as a mass email. I haven’t received anything either way either but assuming rejection based on that!
 
Community Action and Human Services in Miami
Received a semi personal email with an invite 12/13

in case anyone is waiting.
 
University of Wisconsin-Madison Mental Health Services
Rejection
12/13 @ 2:20 CT
Mass e-mail (not personalized, appear BCCed)

It's weird getting lots of invites on the front end and rejections on the back end. I'd like at least 1-2 more invites sprinkled in there, thank you!
 
Anyone heard from:
  1. University of Washington Counseling Center
  2. UC Davis
  3. Ohio State University
  4. University of Houston
Please put us out of our misery already!!!! Good luck to all of you, friends. Many positive vibes going across the country.
 
Has anyone heard from the University of West Virginia Health Sciences Center (in Charleston, WV)? They had a late application deadline (12/1), and their interview notification date is 1/6/2018. However, their earliest interview date is also 1/5.
