I was about to say- I just saw that! So it says on the portal it depends on the assigned reviewer. So it looks like some reviewers are just ahead of the game at the moment lol
That would be amazing and much appreciated! <3
Exactly!! I'm trying so hard to be patient though so when I see other people are getting them I'm like where is mine!! lol
Please let us know how it goes!
I have mine this friday at 11am but havent received a link yet. Fingers crossed it comes soon!
same!
I said yes to the invitation because I did not want to seem unresponsive (kinda overthinking there lol)
OHH yes what day is yours??
May 10 at 2pm
Perf! I’ll let you know how she is and how it goes cause mine is at 8 am on the same day!
Does PHAP determine final candidates solely based off of interview scores or is it an accumulation on scores from the personal statement + interview?
June - August, it's a long process. I believe they send emails instead of calling.
Absolutely not! Lol I’ve been trying to find my lady lol
I got mine today! I think in the portal it says they send them out the day before your interview!
Never mind I got it to work!! Had to use a different laptop lol
How did you accept it?
So I have a yahoo account and on the website it didn’t have an accept button. I had to basically add the account on the mail app on my laptop and then it had the accept button. Kind of how it is in outlook! But the email will disappear into the trash bin after so I would say make sure you move it back to your inbox after!
Unfortunately, I do not know the answer to that question but I will ask my supervisor for that question.
Hello,
How many questions did they ask and were they tricky if you don't mind me asking? I'm so nervous for mine!
They started with a intro to the program, then they asked six questions I think, and 4 were scored and 2 were yes/no questions about my geographic/topic preferences. The questions weren't trick questions at all, pretty basic. One was basically tell me about yourself and why you want to do public health. Then how do yiu handle working on multiple projects with competing priorities. Then describe a time you had a challenging time working with supervisor or co workers and what did you learn. And then the last question was describe a project you worked on as part of a team and what did you learn. And then you got to ask questions at the end!
! Does anyone else have similar concerns for their interview or are these interviewers randomly assigned and I'm just freaking out for no reason?Don't worry about it at the interview, this person is not who you'll be working with. They ask you your preferences again at the interviewHi yall!! This thread motivated me to finally make an account on sdn, congrats to everyone who has an interview coming up!
I could really use some advice because I am slightly freaking myself out, I have an interview on Monday with Kimberly Cantrell, who I can't find a whole lot of info for but from what I could gather, she's associated with tribal support/health. I indicated on my application that I would NOT prefer to work on a reservation or rural setting, so I'm worried that my interviewer is going to be working in an area that I don't want to work in and that could make things awkward
I wouldn't stress yourself out too much!! (easier said than done I know lol!) I assume they randomly assign staff to interviewers.! It is probably just a coincidence your interviewer is working in an area you would not prefer 🙂 my interviewer worked/works on STD/STI education (based on what information I could find about her!) and I'm not very interested in that at all, but I think as long as you make them aware of your own preferences it'll be fine!Hi yall!!

I had mine earlier today! They asked 6 questions. 4 were behavioral, one was the simple, “tell me about yourself” and the other was “why you over other candidates?” The behavioral questions were related to (1) time management and stress, (2) working with cultures different from your own (3) working with a supervisor or coworker who operates differently from you (4) adapting/developing something new. They seemed to all be related to the Best Fit.
How are they going to evaluate like 100+people based on those same 6 questions lol I’m anxious now lol
I wonder how it works? I feel like- since there are multiple interviewers, each interviewer will probably rank the people they are assigned? It sounds reasonable, but yeah- we've got time!
Based on what other users have said, it seems like they have a few behavioral questions they rotate through, so it isn’t always these questions. But either way, ya...not a lot of variety to evaluate!
Someone earlier in the comments said 120-200 is the number of applicants they may select for the position but idk
Thank you both for your responses!! Mjex18 I am low key jealous I want to do STD/STI related work!! Hoping everyone's interviews go well :^)
Interesting, no my interviewer did not say how he evaluated me but that’s looking like excellent news for you!
My interviewer said ~2200 applicants, 500 offered interviews, then they’ll cut it down to a pool of 200 and of that 200, 135 will get matched
My interviewer said I did excellent as well. So it possibly is a thing.
