jrshelton1977 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Hi! Is anyone applying or has anyone already been invited to interview? :sweat: I applied but haven't heard anything. Someone else told me that they were offered an interview in late August. So, I guess they are, or have been interviewing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA student TN Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Interviews have started about a week an a half ago. Different from last year, it seems that the interviews are every week other than every two weeks. That is what I have noticed. My class started with 64 students and now they will be filling the next class with 80 students. The first class has about half of that and they are currently on rotations.

annabug Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 I have an interview early in November! So excited! MamaPA, what should I expect in the interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaPA Posted October 1, 2010 Author Share Posted October 1, 2010 Annabug, You should absolutely above everything else BE YOURSELF! I didn't read the "commonly asked questions" or rehearse my answers based on what I thought they would ask. It doesn't matter who interviews you, if you come across as being fake or "rehearsed" they will see right through it. Review your application and make sure that if you are asked to verify something that you at least remember what you wrote. It was very relaxed and you won't believe until you actually get there just how nice everyone is! Know your best qualities as well as those that could use some fine tuning and be able to clearly articulate them to your interviewers. Really listen to the question and pause for a moment to think about how you want to answer. Don't be overly "chatty" or go off on another tangent that doesn't really answer the question you were asked. Enjoy the day and be proud that you were asked to interview, regardless of the outcome. Best of luck to you! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyoctober Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 hey! how soon after you guys applied did you get a call asking for an interview? Do we know how many spots are filled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazazee Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 MamaPA, were the questions mostly about your strengths/weaknesses, how did you prepare for this profession etc or did they also ask about current issues and ethical issues? i know this is a very specific question so you don't have to answer if you don't want to :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaPA Posted October 29, 2010 Author Share Posted October 29, 2010 Hi greyoctober, My CASPA was verified the last week of July and I was called for an interview toward the end of August. I interviewed on Wednesday and got a call the next Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MamaPA Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 Thanks MamaPA :) ..I'm super nervous about this b/c this will be my first PA interview :/ Annabug: No i'm not interviewing tomorrow..I interview on Nov. 5. Let me know how your interview goes!! Good Luck :) !! mazazee, Don't be nervous! You couldn't have hand picked a better place to land your first interview! Truly. BE YOURSELF! Avoid cookie cutter answers that you think they want to hear. Tell them what makes you special and different from all the rest. You have unique qualities to bring to the table (we all do) so you need to be confident and tell them how those unique qualities will make you a top notch provider! Let me know how it goes! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

annabug Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Wow Annabug! Congrats! Just now saw your post. How was the interview?? It was great! It was really laid back and I felt relaxed. The campus is nice! There's not much to do around there but I guess that's ok when you have no time to do anything! I have 2 more interviews to go! It was a great first interview!

greyoctober Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 So I got an interview - Nov. 18th. They said they are expecting (when all said and done) to have between 400-500 (closer to 500 applicants) of which they will interview 200. Hope this helps!
