Hey!
I have an interview coming up in Ohio State and was wondering if anyone had any advice. I mean, I do the usual: look at website, SDN questions, look up interviewers, but anything in particular? I already checked out the interview feedback forum. But I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks!
 
Hmm... Your interview will be in the afternoon, after all the presentations and lunch and the tour. Try to think of questions to ask your interviewer based on what you hear about during the day. Don't forget your picture. Be prepared for a looooong morning session. There were like 4 speakers with no breaks, and it was hard to remain enthusiastically attentive for that long. They will ask you if there is anything in particular you want to hear about during introductions, so have an idea handy for that. Otherwise, the directions they provide are good, the groups are probably about 15 students, and just try to soak in as much info as you can. OSU is a great school, and I was very happy to be accepted there 2 weeks after my interview. 🙂
Good luck and PM me if you have any questions.
 
All I can say is bundle up! I lived there for seven years and it's coooooold... and some of the people too. OSU has an awesome reputation with its staff and students though, so just relax and be yourself. Best of luck to you! :luck:
 
Thanks! My interview's 2/14, but good to know about the morning session and all. I'm from NY so I know the cold. Just not Columbus. 🙂 But great to hear, and congrats on that acceptance, that's awesome!
