Recruitment

Our program is committed to providing a holistic review of applications and ensuring an equitable and transparent application process. We are seeking applicants who are trailblazers interested in developing and improving the program to meet the resident and community needs with demonstrated excellence in our core values of clinical excellence, compassionate patient-centered care, evidence-based curiosity and scholarship, and resilience.

To realize this, we:

  • Only accept applications through ERAS; all positions are filled through the NRMP Match
  • Are committed to accepting the best candidates, regardless of their medical school or national origin
  • Utilize a holistic review of applicants’ experiences, strengths and growing edges
  • Review, but not base interview decisions, on applicant’s signals
  • Utilize virtual interviewing and standardized behavioral interview questions reflecting our core values to reduce bias
  • Never invite more applicants to interview than the number of spots we can honor
  • Require all faculty participating in recruitment to undergo additional bias prevention training
  • Do NOT sponsor externships/observerships
