<p>I received an email about a “interview event” at a local school. Does anyone know what this means? Thanks</p>
<p>What did the email say?</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure it does not mean that there is an interview opportunity at a local school in your location.</p>
<p>In some areas, where there are a lot of applicants, the local alumni organize a mass interviewing event. They invite a lot of students, set up the alumni in different classrooms, and let the interviewing commence. It’s not the ideal situation, but it can be an effective way to organize the interviewing of a lot of students.</p>
<p>How soon after we apply should we expect an interview email?</p>
<p>just read the FAQ thread, duh, never mind !</p>
<p>@fireanddrain thanks i think this was the answer i was looking for. seems like a strange system. good luck to everyone on their interviews!</p>
