APPIC Interview Invitation Thread (2021)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Has anyone heard from Johns Hopkins University CAPS, University of South Florida CAPS, or UTEP CAPS?
 
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.

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.
 
Has anyone heard from Long Island Jewish Medical Center/Zucker Hillside's adult track?
Also, has anyone received a rejection letter from McLean Hospital or Columbia University Irving Medical Center/NYPH?

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.
 
Has anyone heard from:

- Cambridge Health Alliance (CHA) in MA

Hope everyone is hanging in there!

Congratulations!! Thanks for sharing. 🙂

If you're comfortable, would you mind sharing what time you received these emails? You can dm me if that'd be easier. Our university-provided email accounts had some technical troubles early this morning, and I'm trying to figure out whether it's worth reaching out just in case... Thanks! 🙂

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 been officially rejected from
Cleveland Clinic Children’s? I see their invites went out, and their notification date was 12/4, but I’m still waiting on a rejection. Give me some closure! Lol

Same here! It's been crickets from them....
 
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.

Anyone gotten rejections from Kaiser Oakland, Kaiser San Diego, or LA VA? I see offers but no rejections. I haven’t gotten anything so (unless someone says otherwise) am counting those as 3 more rejections 🙁

If you are talking about the Southern Connecticut Child Guidance Center, I haven't heard anything! Not surprised since they say not until 12/21 this year

I was offered an interview from Edith Rogers Bedford this morning (12/8) and from Mount Sinai/Icahn School of Med on 12/4. Good luck to you!
 
Has anybody who is interviewing at the Philly VA received confirmation of their interview date? Filled out that doodle poll over a week ago now and received a kind personal message from the TD saying a program assistant would reach out to confirm scheduling but so far zip from her....

EDIT: Got the email about 30 mins later! 🙂

Was waiting for a response from Mount Sinai/Icahn School of Med. Can I ask if it was a personal or mass email? Also has anyone heard back about any rejections from them?
