Hey guys,
Well the phone interview was a little over 40 mins, I was sent the brochure and the packet they give to interviewees the day of the interview. I got this info a couple of days before so I had time to read it thoroughly and make some notes for possible questions and stuff like that. I also read the schools website (every tab and link) and got more possible questions from there. I had read on previous posts that the interviews had been laid back but let me just say, thank the old and new gods that I prepared.
I was schedule for a phone interview at 2pm but the Dr. was late and called me at 2:03pm lol. We introduced each other and then he asked me if I was ready. This man just started asking me interview questions, one after the other! And when I say "interview questions" I mean questions like, what are your strengths/weaknesses?, what would you bring to TCMC?, why TCMC?, what would be the hardest/easiest thing from doing the MBS at TCMC?, overcoming challenges in life questions and many more! I was some what prepared for those questions because of other interviews that I've had but it definitely caught me off guard. Then of course he asked if I had any questions… so I asked him almost every single question that I had written down, by the end he ended up saying "wow you have some good questions." I really wanted to know the answer to those questions, it wasn't just payback… Anyway my advise is, if you can afford the trip, just go because it is probably going to be easier and more laid back than the phone interview. If you cant (like in my case) then, prepare prepare and prepare.
Hope it helps
