【职场点滴】One of my interview experiences

The most unforgettable experience of my life was one of my interview experiences when I applied for residency. 

After I was interviewed by a residency program, I was thinking about how I could impress the interviewers among so many good candidates. I was not confident about my English as most of other interviewees' official languages were English. 

During the recess time, I chatted with another candidate who happened to have a friend finishing her interview in my next interview program. She told me that the program offered prematch to very good candidates. I thought that would be a good chance to avoid the tedious unpredictable residency match processes. 

On the day of my interview, the chairman asked me to introduce myself. This was a typical interview question. I answered very well. 

When he introduced this program as wrapping up, at the time when he introduced the chance of fellowship program in the future after residency graduation, I said, "That's why I applied to our program!"

Seemed he was very satisfied with my performance, and he said, "If we offer you a prematch, are you going to accept it?"

"Sure! I would be very happy to accept it!"

"All right, we are going to offer you the prematch today! Please withdraw from the match!" 
"Thank you very much! I will do!"

Happiness happened so fast and gave me the chance to fulfill my dream in the US.

You must have done an outstanding job to have a pre-match

offered to you on the spot.  Pre-match sounds like early decision for college admission.  Hopefully, this pre-match also happened to be your highest ranked program.

I am very satisfied with the program. I did have some

other interview opportunities, but most of them wouldn't offer prematch. To secure a residency spot matters to me. I got my prematch in Nov,while the official match would be out till March in the next year. So,the prematch saved me 4 months,and also saved me a lot of interview expenses on flights and hotels.

Pre-match here means internship?
妖妖灵
哈哈,我觉得是双赢,绝对不能给我们中国人抹黑:)

Residency match都是申请internship。进入全国系统,match日是转年三月发榜。Prematch就

是我面试的这个residency program 提前给了我internship的offer,但需要我退出全国match系统,这样我就不会去别的residency program了。

美坛童鞋们都很棒,业余时间还想着来美坛学英语一起进步。 fellowship就是三年residency之后的专科申请~

Lucky me, 怎么就让我在这里遇到了你? 我也想起了个有趣的面试经历,不是我自己是我亲眼所见.

我们这工程部门需要新招一个mechanical designer, 上午来了一个刚硕士毕业的伊朗裔年轻人应聘,正在互相介绍时, CEO来到工程部.

他是个half-decent man, 每天早晨脾气特别坏, 每天production meeting 都要暴跳如雷, 但到了下午就变成每个人的最好朋友. 能力挺强.

来的时候正是他脾气最坏的时候, 进来先大喊大叫, 把那个面试者吓得一愣. 然后他注意到了这个面试者, 问这是谁?

有个项目经理告诉他,这是正在进行面试mechanical design 的candidate,

然后他冲着项目经理喊道: give him a computer, get him to work.

So he got the job.
