The interview at Midwestern was the most chill out of all of my interviews. It ended up being my second choice. I was soooo close to accepting their invite. A good buddy of mine decided to go their.
The interview went very smooth. Last year (and I assume they will probably continue) they did an "closed file" interview. Basically, they know very little about you; they don't even know your stats. They have a professor and student that interview you together and ask you some fairly simple questions. They want to see how sincere you are and how good you are at expressing yourself. Each person asks different questions and you can find them in interview feedback, so I don't feel bad sharing what they asked me.
"If money or travel time were not an issue, where would you take a trip for 24 hrs and who would you take with you."
"What is your biggest regret in life."
Really, they are looking for sincerity. Last thing, please dress classy!!! There were a few girls there that were wearing low skirts and blouses and when they crossed their legs or bent over, they revealed a little too much! Also, some of the guys didn't even wear suits and their dress pants were wrinkled and they were not well groomed. I really do not recommend for anyone to do this at an interview. Congrats and good luck!
