Interviews

  • Prepare for each interview by first doing research about the program you’re interested in.
    • What sort of qualities/values/experience are they looking for and how can you best showcase yourself to fit them?
  • Determine who will be conducting your interview and the interview location.
    • Sometimes a faculty panel will interview a potential candidate, while other times it will be an alumnus or admissions counselor. A well placed call or e-mail to admissions can answer this for you.
  • Prepare for the “Tell me about yourself” question.
  • Identify your strengths, weaknesses, and your main drive to go into the field. Think about activities you have done that have reinforced your desire to go into psychology.
  • Thank the interviewer for their time and consideration
    • It is always best to send an e-mail thanking your interviewer as well
  • Follow up a week or two after the interview
