Selection Process

Screening

Completed applications will be reviewed by selected members of each consortium site. Evaluations are based upon a point system which takes into regard a variety of factors. If the applicant is no longer under review they will be notified via e-mail of their application status.


Interviews

If the intern has passed the screening process, they will be invited to participate in a videoconference interview with the EPPIC Selection Committee. They will be contacted by phone to set up this interview. Interviews take place early-January through mid-January. Interviews will last approximately 60-90 minutes and will be conducted via video. All interviewees will be given contact information of the current interns and are encouraged to contact them with questions about the internship and their experiences.


Selection

Each primary site from the consortium is registered to participate in the National Match Services Program. Applicants must include the national match number of the primary site for which they are applying on their APPI application. To be considered, applicants must be registered with National Matching Services Inc. Applicants can apply to both sites to increase the likelihood of matching with EPPIC.
