2018-2019 Postdoc Interview Thread
Started by syzergy
Anyone hear from SF VA about the Psychosocial Rehabilitation track or Long Beach VA about the Psychosocial Recovery for SMI track?
Given the last three posts, looks like many of us are anxiously awaiting news!

Still waiting on most!
I am still waiting to hear back from 7 sites and it’s almost the end of the day and I have not heard from a single site yet.
Same, crickets today.
VA Long Beach Psychosocial Rehabilitation track, personal email 1/12. Interview dates: 1/31, 2/2, 2/5, 2/7
I heard from them late in the day on 12/22 with an interview offer for the neuro track at INS.

Thank you for the info!
im waiting to hear from most of my sites...
The wait is particularly painful today... I was really banking on more notifications (one way or another) by end of day. 
Unless we all die before then, yes... this seems like a distinct possibility. I found it odd that some sites (mostly on universal list) had Monday as due date for apps. And most Kaisers had today.... who is spending a holiday or holiday weekend looking at apps????!
Seriously can't believe I didn't hear from a single site today. Waiting on 4 and some of them were due a month ago. Why are they doing this to us??

Did everyone see this?
APPIC is pleased to share the following announcement from the VA Psychology Training Council:
"The VA Psychology Training Council is excited to update all intern and postdoctoral resident applicants about an exciting bit of news. We were recently informed that all VA paid psychology trainees (interns and postdoctoral residents) are being provided with an 8% increase in their stipend for the 2018-2019 training year. This increase will go into effect on July 1, 2018 across all VA psychology training programs."

In December, I was at ease. Now it is mid-January and I am back to being anxious and it seems like I am not alone based on the recent posts in this thread.
I wonder if this means current interns will get a few extra bucks towards the end?
You are definitely not alone @mishpug !!
I was told by my TD that we get an increase in our salary for July.
I was under the impression that it would only apply to the 2018-2019 training year, although an increase in my current stipend starting in July would be awesome. I'll check with my internship TD.
Urgh, my training year ends the first week of July... maybe I will get the slightest of bumps for the last pay check. Good news for post-doc, though!
I love the optimism that we will hear something on Tuesday lol. I'm still waiting for any notification
Based on last year's thread: 2017-18 Post-Doc Interview Thread
I don't expect to hear anything till this Friday at the earliest for college counseling centers. But of course that doesn't change the fact that I will continually check this page.

McLean Hospital/Harvard Medical School
Acute Adolescent Residential Treatment Program
Invite received via email 1/15/18
No specific interview dates given; sounds like it is flexible depending on my availability to travel, which is quite nice!
Also, heard from UCLA TIES on 12/21/17 via email; interviewed on 1/12/18 but many interview dates were offered over mid-January to early February.

Was this UCLA TIES on the main UCLA Campus? Or the Harbor one?

The UCLA TIES post doc is part of the main UCLA campus.
It was a personalized email so it is possible they are still extending invites.
A few of my friends/co-interns at UCLA have received invites and are interviewing this week. I know one was for the peds CL track but not sure about the other.
