Call for Speakers: Life After Residencies, Navigating the "Bad" Interview

  • 1.  Call for Speakers: Life After Residencies, Navigating the "Bad" Interview

    Posted Sep 18, 2023 03:58 PM

    Have you ever left an interview thinking, "Well, that didn't go as planned"? Willing to discuss everything from the forehead slapping Why did I say that? moments to situations that suggested professional red flags? If so, then we invite you to volunteer as a speaker for an upcoming panel.

     The Residency Interest Group (RIG) Programs & Proposals team seeks panelists for a moderated open forum discussion on navigating "bad" interviews. We seek three to four panelists who are willing to share their interview experiences in a moderated discussion. This call for speakers is open to anyone; however, current and former resident participation is preferred.We are planning for the panel to be hosted in November 2023.


    If you have any questions, would like to volunteer as a virtual panelist, or have suggestions for potential panelists, please contact Sharon Han at shrnhan@gmail.com by October 6, 2023. Thank you for considering!
