I was recently accepted into Berkeley and I read that they do "lottery system EIW"
What's the difference between a "lottery system" and "bidding"? Or are they the same thing? Are there any other types? And lastly, do I have to be on campus during EIW or is it all electronic? I live far away from Boalt and would rather not travel if I don't have to.

Lottery system and bidding are the same thing. There is another way, pre-selecting, through which employers can choose who they conduct screener interviews with on campus, rather than being matched with interviewees.Anonymous User wrote:I was recently accepted into Berkeley and I read that they do "lottery system EIW"

Yes, you need to be on campus for EIW, unless you plan on trying to set up 10+ skype interviews with firms that are expecting you to be there.
