APPIC Interview Invitation Thread (2021)

Members do not see this ad.

It’s mentioned on the OF-5 form. But I think it’s just the drug test for the same reason you’re mentioning and from a prac experience I had at a BOP site.

Makes sense! I did have a drug test for my BOP prac also.

 

[Doctor Koala]

I agree, I know someone who ranked based on where they thought the interview went better versus where they liked the most and they later found out that their top choices actually ranked them pretty high but they didn't match because they ranked the top choice lower thinking the interview didn't go that well.

lol

Icahn is actually 12/11 so this Friday!

Oh good!! That's great news!

 

[PhD_CP]

Has anyone heard from Johns Hopkins University CAPS, University of South Florida CAPS, or UTEP CAPS?

 

[Neurogeek91]

For anyone who received an interview with the West Haven VA and is interviewing this Thursday 12/10: have you received your interview schedule/virtual interview links yet?

No I haven’t!

Someone asked about physicals for internship, separate from drug testing.

I had to get a physical for my VA internship. They basically want to make sure you have your vaccinations/are immune to certain things. Also, that you are “physically-able” for the job position. Which does not mean much at all for psychology.

Think of these things as a bureaucratic check box rather than something to be worried about. Barring military internships i imagine, I doubt anything physical is necessary for a psychology intern job description.

 

[oddish2020]

Has anyone heard anything from either:
UC Davis counseling center
American University counseling center

I got an interview from American in late Nov. Hopefully you hear from them soon!

 

[oddish2020]

Rejected from Hofstra CC today (12/8) at 1 pm.

 

[intern21]

Has anyone heard from John Hopkins All Children’s?

 

[matryoshka_brain]

Do we know what the physical examination piece is? I would think just the drug test but am curious if anyone has a different impression.

I recall in the USAJobs description or the brochures that a physical is required. And the urine test.

 

[clinpsychintern]

I know some people posted they received rejections, but I am also waiting to hear from them. Last year they extended interviews by phone from what I've heard.

 

[arb5309]

Not yet! I was told by Allenwood that someone would be contacting me to schedule the CVA but I haven't received a phone call yet.

I thought someone would contact me also but wasn’t sure because the OF form said we needed to contact them to schedule an interview by the specific date.

I thought someone would contact me also but wasn’t sure because the OF form said we needed to contact them to schedule an interview by the specific date.

When I called them about how many days, I also asked if we should schedule the CVA and she said they would call me to do that. For now, all she needed was the OF-5 form.

Has anyone heard from:

- Cambridge Health Alliance (CHA) in MA

[bubble2020]

Did anyone get a rejection email from UT San Antonio Health?

 

[neuro_trainee]

Rejection from MEDVAMC Neuro Track via mass email

 

[ForensicPsychHopeful]

FBOP Folx - in writing from the Allenwood TD "The form is standardized for all BOP positions, so the information can be a bit confusing. There is no need to reach out to our HR to schedule an interview; rather follow the instructions in the body of the email. Our apologies for any confusion! A psychologist will reach out to you in the near future to schedule an in-person interview at the location nearest to you."

For reference, the original email body said to fill out the OF-5 form and return and that a psychologist would be reaching out to schedule the CVA/panel interview in-person. So there is no need at this point to reach out about the physical component mentioned in the OF-5 form. Also a cohort-mate reached out to an HR rep from the form who said the number of days to report is just a formality and it doesn't really matter what we put.

 

[healthpsychenthusiast]

Hey. Interviewed on site last year. PM me if you have any questions! Happy to answer them.

Thanks! I messaged you. 🙂
