一个class of 2010的校友,帅哥一枚,根据口音和google,应该是米国亚裔。
其人非常nice,上来先warmup几句,事先已经知道我最近在休假,所以问我说休息多久什么安排,我说我就要回家过年袅,帅哥说啊好啊,我知道等待的过程很煎熬,所以我们赶紧面完你就可以回家啦。我万分真诚涕泪交流的说thank you very much! (之前我确实是因为不定时间就无法订机票的问题等得望眼欲穿了……)
warmup完毕,介绍了一下this is sort of an informal interview, more like a conversation. 他作为校友事先只看过我的简历但没有看过其他的部分。但是有的人的package是被看过两三次了,每个人情况不一样,等等。
正式问题是先问我的education(完全搭不上的natural science & economics双学位……此乃我简历中必被问到的问题囧)然后是awards, 然后是activities. 然后是work experience. 几乎完全按照时间顺序。讲到WE的时候特别让describe a team you worked in. 其他的基本是按着简历问的。还问了一个比较special的是if you have a totally free day, don't have to think about money and stuff, what would you really want to do? 我很囧的说it may sound fake but I want to do some social work...
最后还问了一下我还有什么想present但是没提到的(so nice!!!),以及有没有什么问题想问。本来是30分钟的面试,人家也是很有心要30分钟完成,我却厚脸皮的拖到了45-50分钟左右,还好他也没有焦躁&取出擀面杖来打我……总的来说,是蛮不错的experience. Yallie确实名不虚传的nice.
如果真这样,那我就杯具了。。。我也是踩着deadline交的。。。
这两天冒出来的interview invitation貌似90%都是女生啊,不晓得有没有人留意到啊?
我是压deadline submit的。不过这个应该是random的。
而且你查一下往年的interview,都是三月份的比较多。我也问了一下帅哥,他说因为每年人都爆多,所以越早能安排也越好。所以我想之后会陆续有来哒~
An applicant can be invited to interview at any time during the admissions process. We have extended a small number of our invitations for the second round, but more will be sent in the coming weeks. Since a candidate can be invited at any time during the round, it’s important to check our email on a regular basis. While an interview invitation is certainly a positive sign, it should not be viewed as an indication of your final decision. About 35% of our applicant pool is interviewed
All second round candidates will hear from us by April 2, 2010
Applications are reviewed in random order so the timing of an interview invitation or decision isn’t indicative of the strength of an application.
