Residency
Benefits of our Interview Preparation
Residency interviews are one of a kind. They involve both formal and informal conversations and may even include facility tours with faculty members. This is as much your opportunity to assess the program as it is for the program to assess you. It’s your chance to determine whether or not you would like to include them in your rank order list (ROL).
Since CaRMS and ERAS have established a fair interview process, whether or not you’re matched heavily relies on your interview performance. Not only must you learn how to approach your interview preparation and interview day, you must also consider what steps to take following your interview.
Our communication experts share insider tips that will help you ace your residency interviews. They teach you how to formulate answers in a way that seamlessly incorporates your lived experiences and showcases your drive, resiliency, enthusiasm, and communication skills. They even give you critical feedback on your tone, posture, and eye contact to ensure you exude an air of confidence and professionalism in any interview setting.

Interview Formats
Traditional Interviews
You will attend a one-on-one interview with a physician, faculty member, or program director. The interviewer will largely depend on the program you’re applying to.
Panel Interviews
Some programs use a panel interview format where applicants are simultaneously assessed by a group of physicians, program directors, and residents. Selected candidates are therefore vetted by several members of the healthcare team.
Multiple Mini Interviews (MMI)
MMIs consist of several stations where you’re given a prompt. These prompts are based on ethics, teamwork, communication, problem-solving and conflict resolution. After a few minutes, interviewers can pose follow-up questions.
