Seanb Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Has anyone heard anything about Anchorage interviews? Last year, they were released in the middle of September according to the forum thread from 20-21. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliac Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 I'm interviewing with Tacoma on 10/8. I've been told that MEDEX does group interview style. Anyone have any insights on group interviews? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any insights on group interviews? This is from a response from someone else on the tacoma oct 2020 interview from last year. They describe it the best i can remember: "We had three 45 minute interviews in the morning followed by admissions and financial aid info in the afternoon. You’ll also get to ask questions of current students in Tacoma class 8. The week of the interview MEDEX will send you a sheet that indicates which faculty and fellow interviewees you will be with each of the 3 sessions. Each interview will consist of 2 interviewers and 3 interviewees. They also send a schedule for the day and some info about the interviewers." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little nervous because I was verified July 10 and haven’t heard anything I feel your pain. I’m waiting to hear about Anchorage. I’m super confused, because no one has commented on this forum about first round interviews in Anchorage and conceivably, others on this forum are also waiting for Anchorage and Kona.

TIA! So after the application criteria is met, the email for once faculty review is complete is in regards to wether you get an interview invitation or denied later on is what I believe.

From what others are saying, Anchorage should be after Tacoma, but seems like either some Anchorage invites did go out but no one posted, OR they decided to do another Seattle round before sending first round Anchorage invites... I'm so antsy at this point! I'm waiting for Anchorage and Kona too. Kona is last from what I hear from last year though, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried reaching out to the school and got what seems like a canned answer. I’m hesitant to reach out again, as I don’t want to be “that guy”. My question directly asked if first round interviews had gone out yet, to which the person replied (paraphrased) you’ll get an an email when we release invitations. Perhaps they’ve gone out and no one posted, or maybe they’re waiting for some reason. Your guess is as good as mine. Best of luck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What site are you applying for? Seattle is currently doing their first interview (they are first). There are several interview groups for each site as well.

acnls3 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Hello, any luck on getting an interview invite if you applied early august? I'm aware of the rolling admission, and wondering if what are the chances in getting an invite if app was submitted around Aug. I'm really interested in Medex program as being my top choice. TIA!!

Yes, I was late July due to CASPA issues and still made first interview rounds with Seattle. Good luck. They do interviews all throughout this year so there is always time.

Lol but I will give everyone in here some tips on the interviews. There are 3 different interview sessions. All with 3 prospects and 2 interviewers. 1. First interview is a get to know you. Examples: tell me about yourself? Why do you want to be a PA? Etc. Practice this!! 2. Second interview is an ethical focus. I have no examples but just get used to answering ethical situations comfortably and respectfully. 3. last interview is behavioral question focused. Example: tell me a time you worked as a team? Etc. get comfortable with this. Overall, be yourself and try not to be fake. I would recommend studying common questions and doing mock interviews ahead of time. GOOD LUCK!
