When my chapter colonized, the interviews lasted 10 minutes each. There were 5-10 girls being interviewed in the same room by the expansion team members (they had little desks set up all around the big room).

The interview seemed very informal to me (like friends talking). My interviewer (who now is our Fraternity President and a friend of mine!!) asked me to first tell her about myself. I talked about my family, briefly about HS, and then I talked about collegiate involvement and why I had not been through recruitment up until this point. She then asked why I was interested in DG. I told her that I was excited to be a part of a new group on campus. And that setting our own traditions that will be followed for years to come really appealed to me. I was looking for something the current groups couldn't offer (especially to a junior). Etc.

And really that was about it! It was definitely something I was nervous about...but it really wasn't anything to stress over too much.

Here is my "recruitment thread."

Pretty much what she said^^

The one question that I was asked during my colony interview that I still remember was "What 3 words would your best friend use to describe you?" I'm not sure why but that one stuck with me.
