What impressed you negatively?

"my interviewer appeared to be not much older than myself and had little to no medical or science background, which was expected after reading some of the other feedbacks but she clearly didn't review my application and got the feeling she wasn't even listening during the actual interview making the whole process very awkward. " Report Response

What are your general comments?

"unsettling. felt the interviewer was so detached. all the questions were so general. felt she was so uninterested, if anyone from Ross comes across this, whether the interviewer is actually employed through your university or not, during the interview they are representing your institution and if she seems uninterested it can make the applicant feel Ross is uninterested. honestly afterwards felt like ''what was the point of that?'' but we'll see, was told it would be approx. 2 weeks to hear back."
