JMSS Entry For 2018

[WhompingWillow]

Congrats on finishing your interview! Was your interview experience like Shadestache's?
So the 'mini maths test' was difficult? Oh dear, that's worrying. 

Nah. Mine was fine. I made Mr a Corkill laugh 4 times during the interview.

Okay, if I don't get the answer for the maths problem then I'll feel a lot better, because it seems a lot of people didn't get it. *phew* man, I'm nervous. 

[Shadestache]

Man, you guys are so lucky to get the principal as your interviewer :')
Could someone pm me what the maths puzzle was?

I'm beginning to think that my interviewer gave up on me entirely, so that's why she didn't take notes or anything.
When you guys talked about your qualities and aspirations, did your interviewer take notes?

Ofc. Mr Corkill took a full page of notes on me.

yeah same hahah

[Shadestache]

Ah man, this is making me sad :')
When I get rejected by JMSS, do you think it's possible for me to have another interview? I want to say that my interviewer didn't give me a fair chance, but I don't think they'll care enough to do another interview.

Only can you do the interview once. If you get rejected, they'll message you saying if you're on the waiting list for second round offers.

Yeah I know. It's just really unfortunate that my interviewer didn't care about me :')

Oh Shadestache! I know your situation may seem hopeless, but please don't think that they've forgotten about you. Though the interview may have not paid as much attention to you, I'm sure they'll still give you a fair chance as the other candidates, and it sounds like you did well on the other tasks. I'm sure you'll get in!

I'm not so sure about the "fair chance" part because a large part of it will be the interviewer's opinion. They could be like, "This student was amazing and passionate" or "This student was alright, though it's not what we're looking for."

Ugh. I feel as though I talked about being versatile too much. I said that I was good at academia, sport, leadership, etc. I'm not sure if they're looking for someone who's like this. They might think I neglect science or something :\\

For the puzzles, they're not entirely maths driven. I would say that it's more logical, so don't lose hope.

Wait same with my interviewer, she didn't even take a single word down!
She just kept nodding.

Holy crap! I feel your pain :')
The only time she took down notes was when she looked through my portfolio.
Wait, could you describe what she looked like? I feel as though we got the same interviewer :')))))

I am going to admit that I forgot what her name was :')
I recall her having gingerish hair, middle-aged, wore glasses.
