So I have done a thorough search for reviews on Cleveland Clinic and the interview. Was wondering if anyone has any input on how the interview went, and what kind of questions they asked? Should we brush up on our psych knowledge? Current psych research? Or just know our application well?

I'm a CCF resident. I've been removed from the interviews for some time now I can't comment with great certainty how our faculty are interviewing these days. I can say that when I interviewed it was no more or less stressful than other programs. I do recall some were quite enjoyable.
As far as your specific questions I would say put some time into each of those categories. Knowing your own application, the trends in psych research, and having a medical student level of psych knowledge would be expected of any program not just CCF.

Interview day was really laid back. 6 20 minute interviews, all with faculty. Because of time constraints, they stick to pretty manageable questions, and then leave time at the end for any of your questions.
Did they pimp you on psych? I'm just wondering if I need to refresh my memory, its been a while since I did my psych rotations.
Was not pimped whatsoever.

I've noticed residents from some other programs on here have stepped up to talk about their respective programs. I'd like to say similar to them, I'm very happy with the Cleveland Clinic and the very supportive environment here. We work hard, especially when on call, but the patient exposure and faculty are a treasure trove of knowledge. If I started to write freely about the merits of our program people would glaze over from the long posts! 🙂 CCF is awesome.
If you have specific questions I'll do my best to answer them.
