divinecomedy Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 They're probably giving OOP first dips to allow for more flexibility in making travel arrangements. I will be declining my interview invitation regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoomans Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 okay so some advice would be appreciated since UBC explicitly stated they won't help with this. we are required to send in 3 ref letters divided between 1 professional, 1 academic, and 1 community service. issue with my main community service item (hospital volunteering) is that 1) it was pretty short, 2) I mainly took blood pressures etc of patients before appointments and interacted little with the doctor or residents, so i can't really ask them for a letter, and 3) the volunteer coordinator only makes schedules so i doubt can answer the questions about my ability to work with people or other qualities. so im a bit stumped as to who to ask. the only thing i can think of is that one of the first labs i worked at for pay, I continued to volunteer at after my contract ended for ~a year. i have a good relationship with my supervisor and know this letter will be great, but does this really count as community volunteering? arghhhhhhh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
