Ho presentato la mia candidatura di persona. La procedura ha richiesto 2 mesi. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso MIT nel mese di feb 2013
Colloquio
I applied for Mechanical Engineering department for Master degree.
I got email for scheduling Skype interview from the faculty and next week I had interview with the faculty.
The faculty interviewer is the one I referred on my SOP as whom I want work with.
But he told me that that was just general interview for whole departmental level, not just for his lab.
He told me that they don't usually interview like this for Master applicant in their department but policy was changed from that year.
The interview was really casual around 30 mins interview in very casual atmosphere.
I just briefly talked about my prior research experiences and he asked some questions.
It took more than 2 months to be declined and thought I was on the wait list.
Hope this would be helpful for you guys!

Previous experience teaching classes and working with students
There isn't one, I'm just forced to write a review to get on here. No calls or zooms or whatever. I did some phone calls to get a sense of some of the professors and their labs but it wasn't mandatory.

Why do you demand that people pointlessly do this when they don't have useful input?
