  10. The Interview

  11. Basics • The only part of the application process you can still change • For 2 equally paired applicants, can help tip you over the top – or not • Everyone thinks they know how to do this • Most are wrong • Everything requires practice • Avoid “killing mistakes” • Get immediate feedback and correct errors in performance while you still can

  12. The Process • Faculty (Mentors, FAAs, other faculty) • Schedule date (coming) • Select interviewer • Choose same or different specialty (Vandy interview caveat) • Send in advance via email CV, personal statement, “fact sheet” • Dress for interview and BE ON TIME

  13. Additionally • Don’t have to participate • Interview is private – no information will be shared • Some faculty (and students) may choose NOT to conduct (or have) interview in same specialty if student planning to interview at Vanderbilt – ASK!
