First pre-application Skype interview


Question

Posted (edited)

I had my first interview for a Ph.D. program this morning. It lasted for 30 minutes and was more smooth than I expected. 

We talked about the weather for 1 minute, then I jump directly to my personal introduction. Then professor talked about what she has been doing and what her Ph.D. students are working on. She asked me if I have any questions about her. I asked her what she expects of a Ph.D. candidate, and told her the application process requires a faculty accepting the applicant before applying for the Ph.D. program, and she responded without hesitation "Sure. I will say I accept you. You are a competitive candidate. And when you finish your SOP, I can help you to make sure it looks a good fit for my research. We can have weekly Skype meeting in the future and you can just send me messages through Skype." And Professor asked me to send her my CV at the end.

Do you think the response is positive?

Thank you for your time!
