Program will do interviews at INS in 2012: Yes

We will not be accepting applications for the upcoming training year. We will have two openings for the following year, 2012.

Policy regarding on-site interviews: After reviewing application materials, we will contact some applicants for required in-person interviews. We are happy to make this interview available to applicants at INS. For those applicants not attending INS, we can and will arrange for on-site interviews. We also welcome on-site visits from applicants who have previously interviewed at INS, though understand if this proves a hardship for the applicant. If the applicant is unable to visit our site, the applicant should expect to complete phone interviews with staff that they did not meet at INS. Interview location is not a factor in the selection process.
