It was my mistake. They clearly mentioned that they have a strict yog cut off at 5 years but i am a 10 yog. But again they mentioned one year usce is an added asset to the application which i had, so i took a chance but didn't work.

Just received the email. I was afraid to open it. Thank god it was not the rejection email.

Dear Applicant:

Thank you for your interest in our program here at MetroHealth Medical Center,
Department of Psychiatry. At this point-in-time, we are reviewing all
applications and will contact you at the email address listed on your
application if a future interview is in line.

Please understand, we have many applications to review and not many openings
to fill. We are interviewing during the months of November, December and
January and only three days per week with two candidates each day; so you can
see our selection of applicants for interview will be limited.

Thank you and the best to you during this interview season
