Hey! Is it possible for you to share the outline content of the invitation email? I also applied on the same day but haven't heard anything back until now. Is there any guide or anything important to know about the interview?
Thanks,

No guide or anything of the sort. Just the date, time, and the name of the interviewer.

I also found an old topic about the interview. Seems like there is no such thing as admissions test anymore. Just behavioral questions.

I haven't heard anything yet! How was the interview? How many days notice did you have before it?

Thank you! The interview is this coming Monday. I am planning to go through the topics you listed, as well as the topics I mentioned in my SOP.

Have you heard about an interview? I've still not heard anything!

No, I haven't heard anything yet. I guess (judging from previous years timeline) that if we don't get an invitation by the end of this week, then it is a rejection.

Ah I hope not!
Where have you got that information from? I found a blog from somebody who applied last year who didn't hear about interviews until around 6th March but then started freaking out when I saw people on here starting to hear!
Ah I hope not!

I hope I am wrong.

Well, I don't know the exact timeline for this year, but the deadline was a week earlier this year (8th of January vs 15th of Jan last year). Also if you go to GradCafe website, you will see that most of the people last year had their interviews on last 2 weeks of February. Of course, it doesn't mean anything for this year, I am not sure if there is a strict deadline for interviews, but I am sort of preparing myself mentally for a rejection now.

Didn't get any technical questions really. They were based on my projects. Overall, I was just asked generic questions, nothing technical.

It went pretty badly, the interview consisted almost entirely of technical questions (mostly mathematical). I had almost no sleep because of the stress and therefore could not really think and answer the questions properly...

Looks like someone got an interview offer yesterday so there's still hope for those of us who haven't heard back. Getting a bit worried but I suppose there's nothing we can do but wait
