Unmatched Phase II 2018

[dreamingoftmrw]

Regarding phase II, if offered interviews, does anyone know if it has to be an onsite interview? Do you think programs will be okay with video interviews like through Skype? I don't know if I would be able to afford travel and hotel and take time off rotation...

It depends on the site, but most are going to be phone interviews or skype interviews if you're not local.

Do they have clinical cases during those interviews as well?

I'm having a dilemma... Should I and can I submit my application if I'm still waiting on a reference writer?

yes - submit it - we aren't going to (usually) penalize a person because their reference doesn't have their ducks in a row

Has anyone heard back from programs for interviews? If so, would you mind sharing where or maybe at least state/geographical region?

gotcha - I know with the scramble that is how it worked, and thought maybe some RPD got all confused!

Are most programs reaching out today?

 

[Rx Maz]

We aim to start sending out invites by Wednesday evening/Thursday of this week.

We are quite overwhelmed with the number of applicants. We have received over 45 and we just have one position left. We still predict we might have more submitted too.
