<p>i had my interview a while back, and it was very different from expected (I had done 2 interviews before for other schools). anyway, the interviewer asked me almost NO questions about myself, didnt allow herself to see the resume (apparently theyre not supposed to be focused on academic stuff in interviews) and mostly encouraged me to ask her questions. so basically the half hour consisted of her talking and me nodding and going "yeah"</p>
<p>does anyone know if they have to write something up? will this interview hurt me since she didnt let me talk about myself? i dont really see how she couldve gotten to know me granted that i spoke very little.</p>
<p>I think a good bit of the impression my interviewer got was the questions I asked. The first half was me talking, the 2nd half was him. He was very nice, and seemed happy with the questions I asked. They lead into some other things as well, like, asking about the job situation led a bit into the growing up in a lower income family and stuff. Don't know if yours did the same. Different regions have different guidelines I guess. I know they write something up, because he had an evaluation sheet with him (although I didn't see hte exact questions and he didn't fill it out until I left)</p>
<p>My interviewer told me he was going straight home to type up the evaluation, which was due by December 1. He knew nothing about me. My experience was pleasant. The only question he asked me was, "Why Princeton?" and after that it was just like a conversation between two people.</p>
<p>i think everyone gets the impression that their interview was "great"</p>
<p>i have yet to hear from someone who didn't think their interview was good.</p>
<p>Mine was same format as people have mentioned earlier: first 45 mins i talked, the last 45 mins he talked. (maybe more like an hour for me and thirty mins for him)</p>
