Report Response

What are your general comments?

"The interviewer spent a significant amount of time talking about himself. It was a little frustrating because I thought the interview was about me talking, but afterwards, thinking about it, I realized that it was probably done on purpose. Being a doctor is about having the right answers, but it's also about being able to listen to patients, and I am almost positive that he talked so much because he was testing my ability to listen.
