Hey @annukiins have you heard anything yet? I swear PAO told you we'd hear back this week (it feels less and less likely as time goes on lol) 😆

my best guess is that something will only start happening today -- i read somewhere that the quickest PAO decision is after 8 working days (which is today if we count from 13 feb). but we'll see, considering that someone will only have their MPhil interview today

Oh wow! Sorry for the questions but who was your interview with? What sort of questions were you asked? I’m curious in case I get an interview invite I’d love to know more

It was Dr Orla Delaney, and the questions were "What's you background?", "What's your research", "How is that related to the humanities", basic interview questions.

I hope you did well in your intv and get that DP status soon!

But all in all, one might assume we’d all have to wait for another month 🥺

Dr Orla Delaney is the first PhD graduate from CDH I believe.

That’s not bad! And I’m sure she liked you, she may have been a bit nervous too :’) fingers crossed you hear back sooner than 1 month eek!

I reckon people who haven’t been offered an interview either because they’re still on submitted or DP have probably got their offer/rejection decided already so it probably won’t take that long (here’s to hoping)!

My guess is that those who were moved to DP last week or before will find out the outcome by the end of next week and those of us who moved to DP this week will find out the outcome by the end of the following week.

Yeah something like that I agree, I also imagine maybe more interview offers will get sent out too

Woof.... I wonder if getting a DP last week was a good sign or not 😕 Here's to hoping!

Hey, was it for Mphil? these questions are part of the application isn't it? If this was this short I wonder what the real purpose of the interview! Hope you get through it!

Thank you so much for sharing! Hope you get a positive response as soon as possible (a month long wait seems brutal 😭) All the best!
