A bunch of them seem to have filled. I know Brown, OSU, BIDMC, MGH and Arkansas have filled.

Have people been receiving interview invites? Do we know when the bulk of them will be sent (ie, did I just not get any)

Have two so far (applied to about 25). From the last two interview threads, looks like prime time will be over the next 4-6 weeks.

If you dont mind me asking, what programs have you received interviews from?

Yes. I just received rejection from them too. (Also interviewed there).

lol haven’t heard back either. are they rejecting us one at a time?

Anyway SLU has sent out interviews. Kinda thought many more would have sent by now

Maybe you are one of their top picks and waiting to see if the first pick will say yes? But the remaining of us got rejected?? 🥹 it’s crazy that they picked their candidate in just 3 days post interview. (I interviewed with them last Tuesday).

I mean if they have filled, I assume that means they picked the person and they said yes aka the rest of us are all rejected lol

To be fair they did tell us during the interview that they would pick in 2-3 days post interview.

Thats true. He did mention they’re not following the timeline.

Maybe they already selected who they want but they're following the Unified Timeline to release the offer in Oct ?
 
Any tips on what sort of questions they ask during interviews?

Questions have been all over the place for me but overall regular interview type questions. Everything from why dermpath, tell me about yourself to what is misconception people have about you. Haven’t had any super specific dermpath questions (yet)
 
Any tips on what sort of questions they ask during interviews?
Why do you want to do dermpath?
Tell me about yourself?
Tell me about your dermpath rotation experience
What do you think the strengths of this program?
What is your plan after the fellowship? (Academic vs community vs private practice)
Tell me more about your research?
Do you have any question for me?

Basically standard questions.

Good luck!
 
Just got Indiana. Ironically had crossed them off my list when someone here posted they got Indy on Saturday and I didn’t so some programs may be sending in batches
