I think you should be ok because you have asked for accommodation. I see! I got way too ahead of myself and then panicked right after lol. I was thinking of emailing them if I didn't hear anything back within the next two days. But could you let me know what they say if they respond back to you? Thanks!

It should be ok. They should probably make it more clear how to respond to invites. Not sure if anyone else in this forum can help. shiron 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

slimduck 1 Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 Hi there, congrats to those who have gotten an interview!!! Just wanted to know if there was any information said in the pre-interview seminar from UofT about the interview waves? Are we to expect 3 waves with equal number of invitations, or the first wave (yesterdays) encompasses for ex, 75% of invites. Any insight is appreciated Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Any insight is appreciated Based on the number of people who posted in previous years vs the number of people who posted yesterday it doesn't even seem like 33% of total invites were sent yesterday. It's possible there will be a couple more smaller waves to come in order to fill up the first interview date. medyforest, slimduck, newmy88 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shiron 7 Posted January 18 Report Share Posted January 18 56 minutes ago, rainy said: Also, did you send details of the other interview or just mentioned that you have conflict Thanks for letting me know! I also got an email back from them saying that by saying "No" it doesn't invalidate my invite, instead, it alerts them that there is a interview conflict. Yup, I included the date and time of my other interview. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Juan99 0 Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 Hey guys! Has anyone that received an interview heard back about more details regarding the interview. I RSVP’d but didn’t get a confirmation email cause they said there wouldn’t be but just scared something didn’t go through properly on my end. thanks everyone! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BuzzyBee 1 Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 Would it be safe to assume thatt all interview invites for Feb 6 have been sent out ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheFlyGuy 105 Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 They always try to give at least 2 weeks notice, so by and large yes. Sometimes last minute cancellations (up to 3 days in advance in the most extreme situation I think) can result in a late invite or two, but that's fairly rare Quote Link to post Share on other sites
