Columbia校友面试经验 (2006-3-2)

% c/ C' L3 e0 x! ^Just had an interview with an alumnus during lunch today. He picked the place and the time. It lasted about 1 hour and 15 minutes!!! In hindsight, I can not believe that I answered so many questions!

School gave me three alumni to contact, only names, emails, and year of graduation showed on the list. I tried the oldest alumnus first, but that phone number did not work. Another phone number seemed to be in a different region, I don't know whether that person is physically in town, so I did not try that one. Then there is only one choice left. Fortunately my interviewer is a very nice person. I really enjoyed the conversation with him.
