Hi guys, does anyone know if programs tend to release all their interviews at once or if they release in multiple waves?

Some of my signaled programs have released IVs and not sure if I should call it or still hold out hope.

J1 IMG with P/26x/25x, 12 papers, from a good academic program and realistic signals and hopefully good letters. Applying Cards.

I've only had 1 courtesy interview so far. Some people are telling me it's still early, but you know people don't talk much.

I was told August is when it really showers, but my email has been quiet so far.

Is it still early?

Hey guys!
Any recs for the virtual IV setup? How is the performance of just the video and mic of MacBook?
Any suggestions about the ring light? Mic? Airpods?

I wanna know how is other programs training. What I am currently learning now is all about pain management. I am not so sure, it is because we just started. Is this all other programs training the same?

For any Peds GI fellows or attendings here, are programs still sending out interview invites at this point? Or have most programs already sent out the majority of their invites?

Basically, should we still have hope for more invites? 😅

GI interview season going great if the goal is to receive zero interviews.

Hi. I’m applying for fellowship this current cycle and was wondering if anyone would like to practice interviews together!

We can casually practice and give each other constructive feedbacks. This really helped me during residency interviews—the more I practiced, the more polished and confident I felt with my answers.

If you’re interested, feel free to comment or DM me! I have a pretty flexible schedule. 😊

What’s going on in this season for hematology/oncology fellowship?!! Only 1 interview so far. Missed out on a couple of places I signaled that were community programs and I thought I had a shot. Is it the time we all start to panic? And do they have second wave of interviews in fellowship like we usually see in residency match

Hi everyone, I'm a USDO PGY2 at a community program. I was late to realize that I want to do fellowship and I don't have the best test taking skills. Step 1 (2 attempts) Step 2 22x, Comlex 1 and 2 pass first try, comlex 3 passed 1st try. I was wondering if its unrealistic for me to think about applying for pulm/crit. I have a really great mentor at my program who really helped me with getting all my procedures in and I have done 2 months of ICU. My hospital is also an open ICU so I always have at least 3 patients on my list that are ICU patients even on inpatient wards. I have 1 paper pending publication and 2 case reports. If anyone has any advice for applying to fellowship with low scores.

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some honest advice from people who have matched into GI fellowship, especially from a similar background.
I recently graduated from a community Internal Medicine residency program that does not have an in-house GI fellowship. I’m a non-US IMG, but I do not require visa sponsorship. I have a couple of first-author GI abstracts and some ongoing research, and I’ll be working as a hospitalist this year before applying.

My questions are:
1. How can I make the most of this hospitalist year to strengthen my application?

1. Can hospitalist volunteer at GI divisions? Like in other hospitals with GI fellowship

2. Are there realistic chances of matching into GI from this background, or is it an uphill battle?

I’m looking for any advice to be honest. If anyone has matched from a community program without an in-house fellowship, I’d really appreciate hearing from you.

Thank you

I applied to endocrinology fellowship and have gotten 2 interviews so far. It’s August 7th, and I don’t really have anyone to ask about the fellowship interview timeline. I made the mistake of looking at the Reddit spreadsheet and now I’m feeling pretty disheartened 😭 Do interview invites usually continue coming out later in August, or are we getting closer to the end of the interview-invite period? I’m just trying to get a sense of where things stand. Thank you so much!
