I just saw someone mention they received an interview. Why is it gone now? Did I misread the message?

 

[erikmartgonz]

Hi everyone! I received my invitation to interview for Stark earlier today. Keep an eye out for your email and remember to check your spam, it will be sent from pstark@cinema.usc.edu email. I would give it a few days to see if you hear back, I know they tend to roll-out their invitations

Congratulations, Erik! I noticed you applied to this program last year and received an interview on January 26th. However, I observed that most others got interviews on February 2nd. I haven't received an interview yet and was wondering if they send interviews for this program in a staggered manner. Thanks!

 

[Zhani]

Praying to get an invitation for interview

 

[dood523]

Hey everyone! I applied to the program this year. I was waitlisted last year. Hoping to receive an interview request if/when they are sent out next week!

 

[Janna]

Hi everyone! Wondering if anyone else heard anything from Stark? Seems like now only one of us in this thread received an interview invitation so far

 

[dood523]

I haven't, I hope we hear something soon!

 

[KaylaD]

Has anyone else received an interview yet?

 

[dood523]

I received an interview request earlier today!

I received an interview request earlier today!

congrats!!!!couple hours ago??still waiting though

 

[film24]

Does the order we receive interviews indicate anything? Ex. first week vs second week vs third week.

 

[kikimahones]

Hi everyone! I received my invitation to interview on the 24th as well.
Just a heads up they will offer you a zoom interview time (mine was for mid Feb) and I had a week to confirm my slot with them. Subject of email should be 'Interview Invitation: Peter Stark Producing Program' and they mention the interview will last no longer than 20 minutes.
Hope this info helps and best of luck to everyone -- keep checking those inboxes!
