<p>I was wondering, is it common to have an interview with two alums? Does this only happen at places where there are a lot of Harvard alums?</p>
<p>Whoa, I've never heard of this happening. Are you having an interview like this???</p>
<p>Never heard of one from Harvard, but someone did write about a multi-interviewer interview on the Penn forum. I don't see why they assign 2 interviewers to one applicant, even in an area with lots of H alumni ('cuz chances are, there are many applicants in those areas as well)....unless they are spouses or something, then that might be a slim possibility.</p>
<p>In the San Francisco Bay Area, at least, there are two interviewers per student. I was interviewed by two Harvard alumni....</p>
<p>yeah I was just called to have an interview with two alums. Also, one of my friends also had one like that. I'm nervous lol......</p>
<p>Wow, no one here got a double-interviewer session. And there is obviously an abundance of Harvard interviewers in the area to allow for something like that; my friends and I (3 of us, and all from the same school) had different interviewers.</p>
<p>From the group of student present today (yup, just had my interview XD)
we were all one-to-one... I was really nervous because the main organized called my name last!!!! TwT</p>
<p>I think I'm having two people interview me. I guess I'm nervous (don't want to get grilled with questions) but on the bright side, it gives you a better shot at connecting and making good conversation. For ex, if one was a physics major and another an english major, you could passionately discuss your crazy math/physics/cs research as well as your published book..or something like that..not that I have both of those haha</p>
<p>I had had two interviews, but not two people interviewing me simultaneously, that's intense!!</p>
<p>So my two person interview went pretty well. They both had good questions to keep the conversation going. When one couldn't think of anything more to say, the other would then say something. Also I got to hear about the Harvard experience from two different sides which was useful.</p>
<p>My son had 2 interviewers too, one was '75 and the other '02, and he thought it worked out well. It may be new, as our oldest only had 1 interviewer at Harvard and everywhere else.</p>
