just wanted to bump this up.. any people with experience with psyd interviews? what's the format tend to be? what are the areas of focus of the interview itself? i'm assuming clinical experience.. is there anything else one should be prepared for prior to entering a psyd interview?
Having had experience last year interviewing for PsyDs and once again going through it I feel a bit more prepared. First almost everyone who you will be interviewing with will have Clinical Experience. Secondly because this fact is mentioned in your resume and hopefully your personal statement they won't focus on it as much as you might expect. I had questions last year dealing with what I wanted to do with my doctoral project/dissertation research wise. Additionally I was asked questions about theoretical orientation and how I decompress as well as about my support system. There were also questions about hobbies, books that I have read recently and of course the compulsory why this program, what do you bring to the program, and what are strengths and weaknesses that you have.
