Just had a group interview at touro, and at the end the interviewer lead us back to our room. I found myself at the front of the group right behind her and thought I might as well talk to her. All she gave were one word answers though...
 
she did that because it would be unprofessional to speak to you in such a way that could be construed as favoritism, especially with others in the room.

well, were you trying to hit on her???????

maybe she wasn't interested and was blowing you off 😕
 
this thread is going off topic, but it should not hurt your chances to talk after the interview
 
Well i was thinking in retrospect that it might've seemed unprofessional for me to try to talk to her with other people there. But at the time, I was worried about seemng asocial for not talking to her since she was right there.
 
Nope, your fine. If anything i would say it helped. Pharmacists need to be social people, her responses were short as others stated because she didnt want to give off a favoritism vibe, or want others to think her decision would be influenced by talking to her.
 
You never told us if she was hot or not....
 
I really don't think any of us can psycho-analyze her motives because none of us know her. In the end, it all falls down to how much pull she has in determining whether or not you are accepted. If she only wrote your answers down and passed them on, I wouldn't worry. 👍
 
Truthfully, she probably gave one word answers because she was afraid of saying too much. Talking to you extensively could have jeopardized her objectivity. At an interview I was at the tour guide grew up in the same area as a guy applying and told him he wasn't allowed to talk about things they have in common and stopped talking to the guy. This was only a tour guide so I'm sure your interviewer felt this way doubly so.
