Any situation where you actually felt embarassed for your fellow interviewee

A dude that interviewed the same day as me didn't bathe beforehand, and it was extremely obvious. I didn't notice anyone actually doing something stupid, though, which is really too bad. On a related note, I guess It's time to bump the bizarre intervierw stories thread...

Okay I don't know exactly that I said anymore but it was something along the line of this:

I told my interviewer that I wanted to go into a specialty and that it was becuase I see myself as the type of person that would enjoy learning a lot of knowledge about a particular medical topic and really make a difference in a certain field. He then asked me why didn't I want to do primary care and I said that I felt like my own preference to always be learning, improving, and discovering would be more fit in a specialized practice.


my interview then told me that he was a family practitioner and he believes he is making a difference by being involved in discovering and improving the practice of medicine.

And that's when I started sucking air through my teeth...




Suprisingly, I got in to that school though 🙂

One chick when I was on the trail was text messaging on her phone when the dean was giving his introductory speech at the beginning of the day. Not really embarrassing... but incredibly stupid.

I was interviewing at RFU.

RFU is also the home of the Scholl School of Podiatric Medicine. The admissions office was under construction so they set the interviewees up outside a Museum (for lack of a better descriptor) chronicling Dr. Scholl's Life and early Podiatry.

A few of my fellow interviewees made their way into the museum, poked around and proceeded to make some rather disparaging comments about Podiatry/Dr. Scholl's products/etc.

Now, when the institution interviewing you has built a museum for someone, it's generally a bad idea to make stupid jokes about them. Especially when an admissons staffer is just around the corner.

After I was finished with my first interviewer of the day, I realized that my pants were unzipped. Good thing I was sitting the whole time, and I hope my interviewer was unaware of my breezy slacks. Anyway, glad I caught it before I sat down with two more interviewers. Pretty embarassing

I know a dude who knows a dude who got a huge boner during the interview, and when he stood up, the interviewer noticed it (she was a female)...true story...happened at an Ivy...dude is an MS3 there today...and he has hooked up with the interviewer...

I swear.

Dear Penthouse,

I never in a million years thought it would happen to me, but there I was...

My SMP class at Tufts was told of a male interviewee who asked his female interviewer on a date after their meeting was complete last year. Needless to say he got rejected from both the medical school and the date.

I could swear I read about this in the "most bizarre interview moment" thread.

I wouldn't be surprised. Everyone in our program and the medical school got a great laugh from it.
