Hello guys,
I also received the same email. Thanks Double shot for the good wishes. So this is my update. I had the phone interview and it went great, the interviewer was just asking me questions about my personal statement and previous research experiences. However, since MITRE conducts some research for the government they require all the interns to be US citizen, and I am a green card holder. So at this point I do not think that I am going to get GEM. Event if MITRE through my application back to the application pool, I don't think that there is time for other employer to review my application and set an interview. My status is still "Matched" so Idk if other company is reviewing my application (finger crossed). I am going to try to be positive but I also need to be realistic so we'll see... Anyway I will keep you posted.
