Ben Robinson, a strategic advisor of Med School Coach, is here today to talk about a strategic approach to the interview process. Ben often hears about students wanting to get the right answer. There’s a sense that they want to do things right and don’t want to be incorrect, wrong, or set off flags. They want to ensure that schools think they are a good fit.
While a school may be considering whether you are a good fit or not, Ben thinks that these core ideas are not very useful for the interviewee in an approach to the interview situation. Ben talks about a strategic approach that tries to understand what the value of an interview is and how to optimize an interviewee’s ability to do well in these interviews. We learn about the real goals of an interview and how to achieve them while Ben provides example answers to common interview questions.
