Same. I’m expecting I’ll be asleep as I’m on the east coast.

I don't have anything in my email (or junk) from them, so idk what that means. I have had some emails from VAs never get delivered. I guess I'll just wait until the end of the business day to inquire.
Not yet. Been waiting on this last one for what feels like foreverrrr

Hopefully we hear something early this week before the holidays to schedule the CVA...
Especially since they need completed prior to virtual interviews. Luckily I’ve scheduled all mine for the end of January.
Same! I have one scheduled for the end of January. I am still waiting to schedule my other two but I want them all scheduled so I just know when everything is haha this makes me super anxious not hearing back...

Did you end up contacting them?
I scheduled mine but still have no clue how to prepare. Well, I know we can’t really prepare but still.

Heard back from Salt Lake City VA. They've had several issues with notifications so if you haven't heard definitely reach out!
Hmm. interesting. I did not receive an email like this but did receive one from Allen wood TD offering a bunch of days/times for the virtual interview. It also said the HR individual coordinating in person interviews was going to be out until next mon 12/28. I’m a little shocked they approached it like that with you honestly like wut
For those interviewing at Atascadero State Hospital: have you received the WebEx invitation yet? The TD indicated in an email that one would be sent out last week, but I haven't received one yet. Just want to make sure that isn't a bad sign or anything haha
I have not!
I did one 4 days later and it was fine and they were very gracious and it seemed well received.
Happy Holidays to everyone! I hope you are all able to get some rest before the interviews start/continue! 🥰

Hi everyone! Has anyone confirmed their interview date for the Ohio Psychology Internship - Forensic Track??
Hello everyone! I hope you're keeping sane during this intense time!
For people interviewing at CUMC, when did you receive the information you needed for your interview day? And what did you receive? I haven't heard anything from them after the phone call during which I scheduled my interview.

Yes, mine was confirmed on 12/4.
Is CUMC Columbia? If so, I had the same concern, I got the phone call on a Friday and didn’t receive the email until the following Wednesday-so don’t worry! You’ll definitely get it before your interview 🙂 good luck!

Has anyone had any group interviews in addition to individual? If so, what were some of the questions that you were asked during the group portion? Also how comfortable was it doing these via zoom?
I did a group interview recently. It was a little awkward via Zoom but we basically just all took turns answering the questions. We were asked about our career goals, how our dissertations will aid our work at the site, and to share a pivotal learning experience from our training.

Thank you! That is helpful
Yes, it is Columbia! How far before your interview did you get it? I scheduled mine mid-December and haven't gotten an email, but my interview is in two weeks. Thanks!
Good luck with yours, I hope it goes well!!
if it's any comfort i'm in the same boat - scheduled early december and interview in two weeks and haven't heard anything.
I got my email only 2 days before my interview! I think they first have to figure out interview schedules/who is interviewing you and at what times, etc. and will send closer to your interview
Yes! I can look to see when I scheduled it for if that’s helpful.
Anyone heard back from Jefferson County Internship Consortium in Kentucky? I got an email from the TD 2 weeks ago exactly saying they are a bit delayed bc she is resigning and someone else is coming in. She said they expect to have offers out within two weeks - which would mean today... anyone heard anything?
FBOP people - is anyone else STILL waiting to hear back about the in person / CVA portion of the interview?
YES. my interview with the site itself is mid January but starting to become concerned that I have several other interviews that will limit my availability before then for the CVA/in person portion

I got an email today that said they’re allowing people to interview before CVAs in rare circumstances. But I also had my CVA scheduled with no input on the date-which of course I have another site scheduled for. 🤦🏼♀️
I’m concerned about this as well.. I scheduled my virtual interview with the actual site for the latest date possible, but I’m running out of days that I’m available for the CVA...
That’s so weird. How did you handle this?? I’m concerned they may do the same thing to me and not sure how I should navigate that situation
I interviewed there and I loved it, the people who interviewed me were so sweet and they seemed like we would get along well. I liked the opportunities there too.

Do they at least have provisional APPIC membership? If not, I do not believe they can participate in the match. I currently see nine sites on the APPIC Directory that have this provisional membership.
My understanding of this scenario, prior to semi-recent changes, is that non-APPIC members were most frequently non-APA/CPA-accredited, as APA accreditation - pending associated costs - essentially guarantees that a site meets APPIC criteria. Previously, non-APA-accredited sites were permitted to enter Phase I with APPIC membership, and Phase 2 without APPIC membership. As of this past summer, there is now a requirement that sites wishing to participate in any phase of the match must be either provisional or full APPIC members. Many of these sites pursued provisional membership in the summer. It was thought that this would place smaller sites at a disadvantage due to funding abilities for APPIC membership and/or pursuing APA accreditation, though I believe APPIC developed methods to assist sites that experience financial hardship with these new expectations.
Anyone else knowledgeable in this area can feel free to correct me.
Sorry to post again - anyone heard from JCIC (Jefferson county internship consortium)??

Are we allowed to send thank you emails to our interviewers or is that against match policy? If it is allowed, what do folks usually say (how long is the email, what do you make sure to mention etc)?
