brittmac07 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 My interview is on October 30! Do you know much about the writing sample we have to provide? No, Im not sure. I was wondering the same thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deseablev Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I did recieve a confirmation email, on 8/16, and then the interview invite on 9/6. hmm, maybe they only sent out confirmation emails to those that applied earlier? Good luck! That's actually same exact date they confirm receipt of my application, but I haven't heard anything back since then. Bummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daphchoi Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 No, Im not sure. I was wondering the same thing! There are 2 writing samples, you need to write about a page each. Don't worry! you will have plenty of time to write them as you wait for your name to be called for the interviews. I interviewed on the 15th...still no reply :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daphchoi Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Thanks! I hope so! Yeah one of them was an ethical problem, the other is more general knowledge. Good luck! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sschoett Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Hey guys! I am still waiting to hear back. Does anyone have any advice on contacting the program with updated info? I've been helping start the Joint Journey Program at Swedish Orthopaedic Institute here in Seattle WA - beginning in Sept - and this wasn't on my application for PACE. Also one of the Docs and a PA have offered to write additional letters of rec. should I contact PACE with this new info? or wait to bring it to their attention if I get a shot at an interview? any advice would be helpful. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mconran22 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I have called them to ask about updating information. I was told that they do not accept anything outside of CASPA, so apparently we cannot update applications unless granted an interview...I was baffled.

ABpa Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 So I am supposed to be flying into New York tomorrow morning from Texas, and now the weather from hurricane sandy is starting to concern me... I heard it is going to be really bad with the cold front from the north mixing with the storm. I don't know whether I am going to be able to fly back out Tuesday after the interview and I do not want to be stuck in New york city sleeping in the airport and/or being in an unsafe situation if the weather turns terrible and there is a black out...any one else have an interview this weekend/monday or tuesday concerned about this and from out of state??

amauro Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Has anyone heard back from the interviews yet? I interviewed Oct. 15th and have yet to hear anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenimc Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 amauro, I interviewed the 23rd and they said that we wouldn't hear back from them for a month. It might be the same timeline for you, maybe that's when they decide who they will give seats. I suppose you could email them, but I probably wouldn't worry about it till at least nov 15, maybe even nov 23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenhas319 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Hi! I was scheduled to interview on Monday 10/29 and spent all weekend trying to get more information about closings as well. I had my car all packed up and was ready to drive straight into the storm but randomly thought to check Pace's facebook page. Around noon they posted that the main campus will be closed Monday, therefore no interview for me. They also posted that they are waiting to make any decisions about Tuesday but that they will make an announcement before noon on Monday. The city is planning to shut down the subway system this evening and many flights into and out of the city are being canceled. At this point I can't imagine flying in from out of town is expected of you... If it makes you feel better I called Brent Friday afternoon and asked about the rescheduling policy for a situation like this. He said that it would not be a problem to create new interview dates and that there is no reason to worry about seats being filled before we get our chance to interview. Hope this works out for us both! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dftan Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Hey guys, I'm scheduled to have an interview in nov16, just wanted advice on which airport I should fly into (i'm coming from california) and whats the best way to get from the airport to campus. Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jl26 Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 I'm from cali too =)! I flew to JFK airport. Take the airtrain to Jamaica Station > subway system to reach midtown Manhattan (forgot which line) > I got off Lexington avenue transferred to line 6 > got off City Hall (total cost: $7.25) Once you get off you'll see Brooklyn bridge to your left and the campus is right there :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAtoPA Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Anybody assume that they are still giving out more invites for interviews? I interviewed last year and I didn't receive my interview invitation until mid to late December and I interviewed in early January. So it may all depend on how the earlier interviews go but there's still hope you could receive an invite! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
