Applicants will be notified regarding invitiations to interview with us no later than Friday, December 6, 2024 via e-mail. If you do not have an e-mail address, you will need to phone the Training Director to inquire as to your status. Dr. De Paul’s phone is 775-326-2920.
We will only be conducting virtual interviews via videoconference. If you are invited for an interview, we will ask that you make a firm commitment to one of the dates listed below.
If neither date is possible, limited alternative dates may be considered on a case-by-case basis. Alternative interview slots will be limited and must be scheduled within three business days of the regularly scheduled interview dates (no exceptions will be made). Failure to take part in a scheduled video or telephone interview will result in your application being withdrawn from further consideration.
Please block your calendar for the full day on your selected interview date. All interview activities will take place between 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM PST.
You will join other applicants in a group Open House in the morning and will participate in group Q&A sessions with the Training Director, current Psychology Interns, and rotation supervisors. You will also participate in two individual interviews, which will be scheduled with program faculty and current interns. Additional details regarding the timing of interview day activities will be provided when you are invited to interview.
The interviews are evaluated according to several factors, including your responses to questions about difficult situations you’ve handled in the past, questions about difficult diagnostic dilemmas and treatment challenges you’ve faced, and how well our site aligns with your training needs and interests. You will be presented with a case description so that you can respond to structured questions about diagnostic impressions, assessment strategies you might consider using to assist with diagnosis, and possible treatment modalities or further referral you might recommend.
