<p>I think I meet a weird alumni interviewer.
He sent an email to me on monday saying that I needed to call him to schedule a interview,so I called him on Tuesday and he told me that he was busying and he would call me later. However,he never called me. I waited until Friday and sent a text message to him.He said we would have a video chat on sunday.Then I asked what would be the exact time and he never answered me.It is sunday morning here. I'm very anxious because I felt like the interview will happen at any time. Is it appropriate to send a text message and asked the time. I think it may seem annoying since I already sent him one.</p>
<p>Oh, for goodness sakes - his behavior is appalling! Absolutely send him a text message asking him to confirm the time for today’s video chat! Or just call him and ask. I hope you’re able to get your interview!</p>
<p>And, when this is all over (in other words, after you get your admissions decision), you should absolutely report this guy to the school admissions office. This kind of nonsense is unacceptable. But, like I said, that’ll have to wait until after you get your decision.</p>
<p>At last he called me and scheduled the interview about a hour later.
I’m not satisfied with the alumnus anyway. I saw no passion for the school in his expression. The interview was absolutely not I had imagined.
I’m wondering if it will be effective to report the guy to school since he was doing it voluntarily?</p>
<p>You should absolutely tell the admissions office how things went. Yes, the guy was a volunteer . . . but the school doesn’t want volunteers who are doing a bad job!</p>
<p>My only question would be when you report this to the admissions office. If you’re an ED candidate, then it’s easy - you’ll get your decision soon and you can contact the admissions office right afterwards. If you’re an RD candidate . . . well, that’s more difficult, but I’d probably suggest notifying the admissions office sooner, rather than later, even though you won’t have your decision yet.</p>
<p>Look at it this way, you are helping the admissions office by letting them know what happened. They want their alumni interviewers to do a good job of representing the college. If this guy’s not doing that, they need to know.</p>
<p>Yep, you’re only 17 or 18, so perhaps your assessment of the interviewer isn’t perfect, but if the office gets complaints from several candidates, they’ll know there’s a problem. But if none of you report the guy, how will the office ever know?</p>
<p>I am so sorry that this was your experience. I agree with dodgersmom - you should absolutely communicate the details of your experience but I think you should do it AFTER you receive an answer on your application (whether ED or RD). Make sure to keep notes on his name and what happened in case you are an RD applicant and the answer won’t come until next spring.</p>
