During the interview, the candidate answers questions asked by members of the committee, in particular verifying the candidates general musical knowledge and concerning his/her presentation (repertoire, contexts). The duration of the interview is approximately 5-10 minutes. The dean may admit a candidate declaring a foreign language other than English to the interview.

Failure of the candidate to attend the interview or the occurrence of technical problems preventing the interview from taking place on the second date will result in the rejection of the recruitment application.
