I'm a current PGY-3 contemplating the job search. There are plenty of jobs in the area I am interested in based on pre-covid word of mouth as well as listed postings. However, I am somewhat concerned about how covid might affect the job search.
Some questions that come to mind:
Will I be taxed with a lower starting salary because of covid?
From an owner perspective, how will covid affect hiring decisions months and a year out?
How does covid affect the behavior of private equity owners?
My surgical volume as a pgy-4 is somewhat unpredictable at this point depending on when the ORs open up again. Seems that covid may be cyclical. My hospital is pretty packed at the moment. Should I just bite the bullet and do fellowship? Will job searching be even worse two years out during a recession?
Etc.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated - these are truly unprecedented times and I'm new to all this!
