Interview Styles – The right one?
Typically 30-45 minutes
Process relaxed each interviewer own style and
has an evaluation sheet, but comments galore!
Ultimately each ranks best to least
![Page 22: The Residency Application Process – How We Do It CORD Conference Annual Meeting Denver, CO – June 15, 2013 Kyle J. Jeray Greenville Health System University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649ce55503460f949b308b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Interviewing – To Do Read the application
ahead of time
Focus questions on
what “fits” your
program
Ask about what’s in
the applicationresearch
![Page 23: The Residency Application Process – How We Do It CORD Conference Annual Meeting Denver, CO – June 15, 2013 Kyle J. Jeray Greenville Health System University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649ce55503460f949b308b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Interviewing – To Avoid?
Rash “Blink” decisions
Talking too much about program
Gimmicks
Making decisions on ridiculous questions
Small talk
What would you do questions
![Page 24: The Residency Application Process – How We Do It CORD Conference Annual Meeting Denver, CO – June 15, 2013 Kyle J. Jeray Greenville Health System University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649ce55503460f949b308b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Take Your Time! It isn’t a race 10 extra minutes
spent doing a good job will be 10 minutes well spent
Applicants appreciative
Needing everyone’s opinion
![Page 25: The Residency Application Process – How We Do It CORD Conference Annual Meeting Denver, CO – June 15, 2013 Kyle J. Jeray Greenville Health System University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649ce55503460f949b308b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Logistically how do you do it? Coordinator key role in scheduling
Remember only need 2 hours to interview 4
applicants (start before 1st case see 2 between and
4th after)
A resident assigned to “entertain” during down time
![Page 26: The Residency Application Process – How We Do It CORD Conference Annual Meeting Denver, CO – June 15, 2013 Kyle J. Jeray Greenville Health System University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649ce55503460f949b308b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Most Important Interview!!!!
The night before with ONLY a few residents
for a casual dinner (typically 2-3 residents
and 3-5 applicants)
Setting relaxed and our residents get idea of
“fit” for program over 2-3 hours socially
![Page 27: The Residency Application Process – How We Do It CORD Conference Annual Meeting Denver, CO – June 15, 2013 Kyle J. Jeray Greenville Health System University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649ce55503460f949b308b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Soooo Why things don’t turn out? Understand Your Equipment!
Pre-op plan!!
![Page 28: The Residency Application Process – How We Do It CORD Conference Annual Meeting Denver, CO – June 15, 2013 Kyle J. Jeray Greenville Health System University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649ce55503460f949b308b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
No Application Process is Perfect!
Lots of ways to do things (are 4 good interviews better than 10 or 15 for 5-10 minutes for an applicant?)
Different strokes for different folks
As much as the process may impact your decision it still is all about DECIDING WHO TO TAKE!
![Page 29: The Residency Application Process – How We Do It CORD Conference Annual Meeting Denver, CO – June 15, 2013 Kyle J. Jeray Greenville Health System University.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649ce55503460f949b308b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Remember -
One bad resident is a 5
year headache
Take your time, screen,
prepare, interview and
ultimately HOPE it is
the right decision!
