Skadden Semifinalist Interview

I have an interview as a Skadden Fellowship Semifinalist next week. I was wondering if anyone has a list of common interview questions they ask? Also, I haven't heard from EJW yet, but if anyone has information about EJW Fellowship questions, that would be really helpful as well. Thanks so much!

I also have an interview. No list of questions, sorry. Pretty nervous and excited though.

I haven't heard from EJW. I think they'll take forever if anything happens at all . . . Much more decentralized, more of a matchmaker than a grant maker.

Yeah I haven't heard from EJW yet either :/ I've heard that the earliest people tend to hear is in November, so hopefully we'll hear something soon...

Just found this thread -- thanks for creating it. I also had an interview and am now anxiously checking my mail. I'll let this thread know if/when I get a rejection letter. Wish they'd give finalists a phone call!
Best of luck to everyone!
