I had these interviewers in King's on Wednesday!
Really nice guys who did their best to make me feel comfortable but my interview didn't go great.

Out of curiosity, what sorts of questions did they ask you? I think the interview process is over so you guys can talk about it now, right?

Yeah it's fine, I just wanted to make sure no one accidentally messed up their application :smile:
I'd say the best time to discuss individual questions will surely be in January, that'll be risk free :smile:

Outside the door for my interview there was a note (mostly explaining the format of the interview) but it also said that it's in your best interests not to discuss the interview or the interview process until the middle of January. Presumably this is in case they want to interview some of the pooled applicants? Not sure though, I'd say that's a good guideline time frame anyway
