I don't Know how many are getting interviewed in Seattle on Jan 22nd but I'd like to meet some of you guys/gals before the interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akmedgoals Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I would love to get together before the interview. I live in Anchorage but will be flying into Seattle on the 20th. Let me know when and where and I will try to make it work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AprilMedicPA Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I'm also interested in getting together on the 21st. This interview is a mix of Tacoma, Seattle, and Alaska applicants, isn't it? I should be in Seattle late afternoon/evening on the 21st. April~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 I'm in for the meet up. Any ideas where? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAT64 Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 I would like to meet up also. I get in on the 21st midday. Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akmedgoals Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Where is everyone staying? I used to live in Seattle and will be staying in West Seattle with family. If everyone else is staying near campus, we can pick a spot over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAT64 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I am staying at the University Inn. I didn't rent a car so I am bound by where my legs can carry me:) Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SB23 Posted December 28, 2014 Author Share Posted December 28, 2014 I live on the eastside of Seattle. Sounds like there's only 5 of us. Any suggestions of where to go? Btw Marianne I think you work with my wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishnozzlehead81 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Hey guys, just saw the thread. This is a great idea, it calmed my nerves a bit before the big day =) I think knowing a few familiar faces helped me be more confident during the interview. Good luck to you all, and I hope to see a few of you in tacoma next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AprilMedicPA Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I'm pretty sure I'll be staying at the Watertown. I'm not familiar with places around Seattle, so I will go with whatever everyone else wants. I will have my vehicle with me, so all I need is an address!

Guest Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I live on the eastside of Seattle. Sounds like there's only 5 of us. Any suggestions of where to go? Btw Marianne I think you work with my wife. Hi Steve, I do work with your wife and she is definitely one of my favorite co-workers! Such a great RN and so sweet! One of these days I'm going to send her home with a knitted hat for your little one. :-) I live in your neck of the woods and look forward to meeting you. Hopefully we can organize a meet up on the 21st. Maybe at U-Village? Free parking, lots of places to grab food and drink. The only challenge for us eastsiders, will be trying to avoid traffic on 520W during the evening commute! With only five of us chiming in about meeting up, I wonder how many will be interviewing?

jlumsden Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Last year, a handful of us met before the interviews after posting on this forum. There were four of us. The next day, 36 people interviewed at the UW. I think there are many applicants who are not aware of the PA Forum as a resource. That said, I am convinced meeting beforehand helped all of us with our interviews. Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Would anyone be interested in meeting at JOEY Kitchen around 3pm on the 21st? It's not far from our interview site and it would be great to meet up before our interview the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAT64 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 That should work for me. I get in Seattle at 11:25am. Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamont Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Hello Everyone, I was invited as well to interview on Jan 22. I just found this forum by chance and I think it is a great resource. I was able to talk to a friend that went to Medex and he agreed that being yourself, and staying calm were essential to a solid interview. I think that meeting up would help with this. Marianne, I would be interested in meeting up with you folks. Is this the finalized location and time? I will be staying with relatives in Bothell, so that would be good for me. Let me know. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akmedgoals Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 That time and place work for me as well. It doesn't sound like there will be too many of us but I can call ahead and make a reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Let's plan to meet up at JOEY at 3PM on the 21st. It works for those who have posted and we can always change it up a bit as needed if more people chime in about the timing. Sound okay to everyone?

jlumsden Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 After you go to Joey Kitchen in the U Village, check out Molly Moon, two doors down. Yes, I know it's January, but it's some pretty awesome ice cream. We walk all the way up there on our lunch break to have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skelsman Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Hi All I would also love to meet up before hand. I am flying in tuesday but will do my best to be available at 3pm. Joey Kitchen sounds like an easy and good place to meet. Thanks for the idea and keeping the posts going everyone! See you all in a week or so.... ah!! :) Sierra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
