Hi daisy! Can you share what kind of questions were asked? I interview tomorrow and I’m so nervous!

Some questions were something like what is a current problem in healthcare or specifically OT, what personality traits do you have that would be good in the program, they asked a discussion question at the end about what you would do if you had a patient who wanted to kill himself. In the interview they asked each question and we each went around to answer it, which was a little nerve wracking. I thought I didnt do well but I ended up getting in two days ago! Good luck!
