Interview !!!

<p>just done my interview today. but it lasted 2 1/2 hrs!! how is that possible??!</p>

<p>have a good convo?</p>

<p>2 1/2 hours??? holy crap! mine was like 45 minutes lol</p>

<p>Yea mine was like an hour and I felt bad because although my interviewer and I hit it off, at one point she was like "anything else you want to tell me" and i honestly didn't have anything else to tell her! But we did talk a lot (and quickly) and even stood ont he street corner talking for a bit afterwards. </p>

<p>I heard that Yale matches you to your interviewer by race, is this true? It certainly was for me...</p>

<p>not true. but so far they matched by gender. At the on-campus interview, this was true for two other applicants and me.</p>

<p>Mine was matched by race AND gender. THe race thing was true for three people I know.</p>

<p>Hmm, that's really interesting. Maybe there are no alumni of my race in this area. or alumni of any college who wants to interview, for that matter... My interviewers for Brown, Yale, and Chicago weren't.</p>

<p>haha my interviewer was my exact opposite. It's like Yale didn't even try to find someone who would match me even just a little bit. My interviewer was:[ul]
[<em>] male (i'm not)
[</em>] republican (wow definately not... nothing against righties or anything :))
[<em>] lawyer (eww... wait, sorry nothing against lawyers either lol)
[</em>] uptight (hah I'm definately not)
[li] gray and balding (not now at least... lol)[/ul]</p>[/li]
<p>We both wore glasses though! Maybe Yale matched us up by how close to blind we are.</p>

<p>His secretary was nice though -- she's my friend's mom lol. I had no idea it was her when she called to schedule the interview. I'm glad it was her though; she's probably the only reason I was so laid back around that guy.</p>

<p>lol; hey I want to be a lawyer! My interviewer's career and major weren't the same as mine (her: math and compsci me: law stuff/econ) </p>

<p>My princeton interview was creepy because not only was the the father of an alum of my high school but professionally he was exactly what I wanted to be: partner in a corporate law firm specializing in mergers and acquisitions/securities and derivatives.</p>

<p>where in ny do you live suburbian? i can't imagine that you'd be that far from alums</p>

<p>lol sorry about that zantedeschia! :) I heart lawyers.</p>

<p>there were 3 times during the conversation that he asked me "anything you'd like to bring up"? then something pop in and we continued talking again.
oh, he even introduced me to Wendy....(aww...)</p>
