You know you have been interviewing too much when....

1) You have read every article in American Way or other inflight magazines - twice

2) Sometime in the past month you have forgotten what time zone you are in

3) You know which restaurants in the airport are good

4) You dread the words: "What questions do you have?"

5) A slit lamp is a slit lamp is a slit lamp

6) You are only half way through interviews, but you are almost ready to cancel the rest and take your chances


Anyone else feeling interview fatigue?
 
hell yeah, do you have to ask.... but it's an experience...
 
You know you've been interviewing too much when:

1) The applicant next to you pesters you about which interviews you've gotten so that he may compare his own interviews with yours and thus (maybe) feel good about himself.

2) You have no desire to attend the after-interview socials or see the city.

3) You see the same applicants more often than you see your friends.

4) You see another Baylor, UCSF, Case Western, Harvard, or Brown applicant. (There are a lot of you guys!).

5) Your credit card hits its max every week.

6) You would rather do a Medicine residency than go through this interview hell again.

7) You've watched every $12.99 porno in your hotel's catalog.

8) You haven't checked SDNet.com in a long time!!
 
1) 50% of your diet consists of something that comes in a small bag and is either "lightly salted" or "honey roasted"; the other 50% comes from the Popeye's in the Atlanta-Hartsfield airport

2) The highlight of your day is an Exit Row seat.

3) Getting questions like so..."So are there Black Bears or Brown Bears in the Smoky's?"...seems a rountine and valuable question used to assess your abilities to practice ophthalmology

4) You begin to marvel at the miraculous mathematics involved in the fact that no program goes below 8 on their list and no resident ever got their second choice

5) You know the number, expiration date, and security code number of every credit card you own by heart...and it hurts to recite them

6) 2 minutes seems like a reasonable time to sum up your entire existence from childhood to adulthood

7) You decide that using a dartboard is by far the most useful way to assemble your rank list

cheers...
keeps chugging guys we're almost there!
