"This was a panel interview with the PD, APD and faculty. The interview itself lasted about 25 minutes and ran smoothly. Definitely appreciate the panel interview setup because it goes much quicker and everyone hears the same response at the same time. This program does not participate in the match, meaning if they like you, you will receive a pre-match offer. "

"The night before, the residents did a Q&A for the interview candidates. The morning of, the program coordinator shared a little bit about the program while waiting for the Program Director to give a powerpoint presentation about the program. We then moved into a waiting room with the other candidates and had the chance to chat with each other and occasionally with the program coordinator. We interviewed with the PD, faculty and the program coordinator. "
