interview
i wore a cream suit with a blue dress shirt. one because i wanted to be professional, and two i didn't want to be in the black suit like everyone else; just different enough to separate from the group. my interview was very casual. classic, 'why do u want to be a doc?' then experience, research and jokes back and forth. my interviewer lived in the same area where i went to school so we had alot of back n forth. its the same process as any other interviewer. if its a conversation you did well; if its them asking questions and you simply answering its not good. your answer should prompt a discussion creating more questions as it progresses. if you walk out smile and not sweating it went fine. they're just people like everyone else. confidence, presentation, and giving thorough, well thought answers while appearing not to have prepared for a week is the key. and for christ's sake have questions for them...if nothing else it shows you've actually read the website and are 'actually' interested in attending. not just sending out apps left and right in hopes of snagging one.
