What are your general comments?

"One interview was by an MD who asked standard questions. A couple ethical questions regarding what you would do with results of unethical experiments (Tuskagee exp etc). Asked about my experiences etc. The second was by a PhD who focused much more on my research, including a couple tough specific questions. He also asked me "What is the biggest problem in the world today" at the end of the interview. This was my first interview day and I was a little extra nervous, but the interviews really were not so bad. " Report Response
