Does anyone have any advice on how to handle conflicting interview dates? I'd really hate to turn down an interview :(

Email the training directors and explain the situation. This happens frequently. We want you to be able to go to all your interviews. Good luck!

Okay friends, time to channel this extra election/Covid/overall state of the world worry into something more productive than rewatching the Great British Baking Show.

This thread is primarily to share invitations for interviews. Feel free to PM me if you’d prefer to stay anonymous. I’ll do my best to stay on top of updates. Additional posts, such as site-specific questions, rejections, and general community support in these uncertain times are accepted and highly encouraged!

Has anyone else heard from the Sarah A. Reed Children's Center? I saw that someone got a phone call yesterday, and I'm just wondering if they're still making their way down the list or not 😅

And I got a rejection via personal email from Larned State Hospital around the same time this afternoon. Hang in there everyone! I know this process is hard - I've gotten only rejections at this point until this one came through, so I know it's tough :/
