Re: Clackamas Community Program

I just got done with my interview at CCC. I was really nervous, but it wasn't bad at all. The instructors who gave us the group interview were really nice and happy to repeat questions if necessary, and the atmosphere was comfortable. I was really happy to be able to do the essay on computer - saves the hands! Now waiting until next week to see if I got in.

Re: Clackamas Community Program

MHCC did essays by hand, it was horrible!! I canceled my CCC interview yesterday... I felt weird doing it, like I shouldn't have canceled, but it was my last choice and I already got accepted into MHCC so hopefully gave someone else a chance at CCC! Good luck!

Re: Clackamas Community Program

Just got back from my CCC interview too...felt like the questions really just judge your critical thinking, situational judgement, and were not as scary as I thought. Be confident and know that you got asked to interview and go for it!! good luck and hope to meet some of you in the fall

Re: Clackamas Community Program

I agree. The questions were really pretty straightforward. Of course it seemed like the minute I finished answering, other things would flood into my mind that I wish I would've added.
The only thing I wish would have been just a little different related to the written portion. I wish I had a couple of extra minutes for that section because I had the hardest time finding the location of the silly delete key (which I use a lot) on those laptops. Oh well, I'll just cross my fingers and hope it was enough.
BTW, if anyone is interested, I'd logged onto the interview signup page at about 7:25 yesterday morning and it looks like they had 99 people sign up for interviews.

As always, good luck to all.

Re: Clackamas Community Program

I also had an interview today at CCC. Does anyone know when we might get the results? I got into MHCC for winter. I wonder if anyone was with me. I was in a white jacket. (for both) I am really excited but I can't wait to just know where I am going. CCC is very close and starts in the fall. Mt Hood really had a wonderful interview process. I also looked for the delete key. HeHe
Any thoughts?

Re: Clackamas Community Program

tejon, were you with me today? I was in a white jacket?

Re: Clackamas Community Program

Hi Zinger – When my interview was over I asked when we should expect results and the instructors told us that they plan on having the letters out “around” Wednesday the 3rd. I interviewed on Wednesday in the one o’clock session and I don’t think you were in my group. Sounds like we’re in the same boat as far as the CCC/MHCC thing! I’d really prefer CCC since it’s only about 15 minutes from my house verses the 45 minutes for MHCC. Best of luck to you!

Re: Clackamas Community Program

wow! Letter by Wednesday is great. My other issue is that i am interested in the operating room and someone told me that Mt hood is the school for that. I need to talk to some people if i get a choice. I usually can read people but I have no idea how i did at CCC.

Re: Clackamas Community Program

Just so I'm clear, they said they'd get the letters out "around" Wednesday so that means we probably won't see them until Friday or Saturday.

Re: Clackamas Community Program

I don't know - the last set of letters were sent out on the 21st and I got mine the same day, while pretty much everyone else I know got theirs the next day, so it should be pretty soon after they're sent out.

I interviewed on Wednesday at 10:00 - I was wearing a raspberry jacket with 3/4 sleeves and brown pants and have shorter blonde hair in case anyone interviewed with me :-)
