What are some typical questions in the YIF telephonic interview?

  • Answer:

    In addition to whatever Santosh said, I could add that they'll ask questions related to the essays you have written. Just to make sure that you haven't been bluffing about it. And how you hope to implement them through YIF. Good luck!

Telephonic interviews are meant to check if you are the same person who has written the application and whether you are true to you word. The interview is v.v. chilled out, nothing technical. Questions basically range from why do you want to join the fellowship, how will the fellowship benefit you? how will you add to the diversity of discussions which take place every day at the fellowship etc. Approx 10-15 mins odd. Chilax!!

The usual. What you have done? Verifying and cross checking details mentioned in the written application, as previous guys have mentioned. I have very little idea whether the format has changed in the past couple of years. But more or less this should be it. I would still suggest you to read up a little more on the various courses taught over the years and the professors teaching them. This will also help you get clarity on why you should go for YIFP. In the process, you will cut out a lot of mumbo-jumbo on why you should be selected for the fellowship. Best of luck! Thanks for A2A!

The phone interview is more of a casual conversation than an interview. A few questions regarding why the application was made , how the prospective fellow hopes to channelize the Fellowship to meet his or her goals and questions regarding sponsorship are asked.
