Interview Invites 2015!

I know 3 people that have interviews with UNC, they sent them out via email yesterday. I also know people who have interviews with Vanderbilt and that have been rejected by Vanderbilt.
People have heard back from VA Palo Alto, San Francisco, and Long Beach. Anyone heard from any other programs in California?

I'm also curious as to what kaiser programs people have heard back from....
This is from one of the med residency forums:
"Guys, remember there are waves. I looked at last years and there are definitely dates I received invites after what was posted.
-Sometimes programs have different readers for a block of candidates; some readers are faster than others
-Sometimes programs invite rotators and home students first; then send out invites after
-Sometimes your mentor calls a program or that program calls your mentor to discuss candidates from your school and you get brought up prompting an invite 1-2 weeks after the first wave goes out"
Don't lose hope if you haven't heard back yet!

No sorry I only applied to the one
Has anyone heard from Moses Cone amb care? I heard some people got phone interviews but nothing after that
They sent out interviews after the phone interview.. But they did say you could hear up until February after your phone interview.
Anyone heard anything from any of the Penn Medicine hospitals?
Received an interview invite email from Southern Arizona about a week ago
Has anyone heard from VA Puget Sound or Edward Hines VA in IL?
va puget sound sent out invites on 1/20
Every place gets so many applicants basically it becomes a lot of a crap shoot. We are a typical community hospital that gets more than 40 applicants for every opening - most from local schools as we have a good name locally, but not nationally. UNC interviews very very few UNC grads for positions there - two years ago I think they only interviewed 8 UNC grads
But UNC always match with lots of their own grads
I told myself I would only go to a max number of interviews and I've officially hit my limit.
No more time, no more money, and by the time I'm done, probably no more energy.
Still waiting on two places but I'll have to decline if they offer.

you sure about that?
Nothing prepared me for this whole residency limbo....is it accurate to think that there's a large group of us that are good, but not great candidates? We aren't in the first group contacted for interviews, but we aren't in the first group rejected either. So we wait, while other people report rejections and interviews....and we just get increasingly paranoid and start double checking PhorCAS to make sure our applications were actually submitted. I mean, I guess if I don't hear anything by match day, I'll assume it's a rejection, right? 😉

five out of the 8 they interviewed - I know most of the UNC people put UNC first in their choice - that surprises me a bit
but technically not more than half, exactly 1.2 (5 out of their 10 residents) - remember us pharmacists are anal about numbers 🙂
we only have 2 people that fall in that category - (wait list) - it does surprise me you haven't heard yet - we have interviews starting in a week -
I haven't heard from 5 programs myself. I know that a lot of people are in the same boat. But something tells me that tomorrow, people will start getting the final emails.
Same here. I haven't heard from 5 programs, some very competitive. I'm applying for PGY-2 so I may be wondering if some of these programs may have early committed but never removed themselves from PhORCAS...
I know that some are sending some late next week as well from speaking to a resident at Tx Tech.
I know the wait sucks, but I guess we have to deal with it.
for anyone who has heard from vanderbilt for interviews, was it the children's hospital pgy1 or the main campus pgy1 that sent out invites and/or rejections?
Anybody hear from Le Bonheur Childrens hospital?
Yesterday via email
I haven't heard from them
Has anyone heard from Parkland in Dallas, TX, or Multicare in Tacoma, WA?
How about Memorial Hermann TMC after their Skype interview rounds? => Update, they just sent rejections 01/23

Parkland did say they will be contact by phone "as needed". I'm guessing all the rejections are not the needed situation. I might shoot them an email next week or so

... OK! I looked at last year's thread and it said some programs sent out invitations on the first week of February. Let's hope that's the case =)

i've applied to 10 programs, got 1 interview (Black Hills VA), and 2 rejections. Heard back from 1 place that they received my application. this wait is KILLING me
It was the main hospital, PGY1 program
I've been trying to keep a positive attitude but I cant help but feel frustrated... For those programs that have already sent invites, is it too much to ask to just let those that they've rejected know in a timely manner? I think i'm starting to go a bit crazy here
