Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Residency Admissions
  • Surgical Specialties

Background:

  • Residency interview scheduling processes vary significantly across programs.
  • Medical students report distress and advocate for reforms in the interview process.
  • Quantitative data on applicant concerns regarding interview scheduling is limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To quantify the interview scheduling experience for US allopathic medical students during the 2020 main residency match.
  • To identify challenges and concerns faced by applicants in the residency interview process.

Main Methods:

  • An anonymous 13-question survey was distributed to fourth-year medical student representatives at Association of American Medical Colleges member institutions.
  • The survey targeted all fourth-year medical students to gather data on their interview scheduling experiences.

Main Results:

  • 18.2% of surveyed applicants missed interview opportunities due to insufficient response time.
  • Applicants in surgical specialties were more likely to miss interviews compared to non-surgical applicants (26.4% vs 18.4%).
  • 57.4% scheduled interviews anticipating future cancellations, primarily due to fear of not receiving other invitations (85.6%).

Conclusions:

  • Approximately 20% of applicants missed interview opportunities due to time constraints in responding to invitations.
  • The majority of applicants engaged in "interview hoarding" by scheduling interviews they intended to cancel.
  • Standardizing the interview invitation timeline is recommended to address applicant concerns and improve process equity.
