Looking for residency interview questions and answers? Look no further! The residency interview is the final obstacle between you and the career of your dreams. It will require meticulous planning and preparation, as you will be competing for very limited spots with other extra-ordinarily qualified candidates.
Before we jump into any specific residency interview tips, let’s take look at the statistics to show you why it is absolutely critical that you prepare well in advance to ace your interviews.
Just to give you an indication of the competitive nature of this process, let us consider some statistics from the Result of the National Residency Matching Program Director Survey for the previous application cycle in the US (the statistics are similar for Canada).
According to the latest survey, for each distinct residency program (i.e. Anaesthesiology, Family Medicine, Orthopaedic Surgery, etc), on average, 856 candidates submitted applications. Out of these 856 candidates, once again on average, 119 candidates (or ~ 14%) were invited to an interview. Out of these 119 candidates who were invited to an interview, 77 candidates eventually were ranked according to their USMLE results, research and non-academic experiences, and most importantly, their interview performance.
Now here is the scary part!
These 77 ranked candidates, on average were competing for no more than 7 available positions for each specific residency match. This means at the end of the whole process, 7 out of the 856 candidates who originally applied to a specific residency program, would have gained a position. Of course, these are average figures for all residency programs considered, and specific data exist for each distinct program. But these numbers should give a little indication of how competitive this process can be and what it takes to successfully match with your desired program.
This is why residency interviews are so important!
