Just matched. Having not had a real mentor or home program, I don't know much about the job market for ENT right now and don't really have anyone I can ask (well, until July at least!).
I still would have applied for ENT either way, as that's what I wanted to do, but would someone be so kind as to give an overview of how things stand right now? Both for private practice and academics? What about traditionally saturated/competitive areas such as big cities and the west coast?
How much is dependent on where you do your residency? Is it hard to find jobs outside the region where you train, outside of where your connections are?
Of course, I realize this could and likely will change in 5-6 years by the time I'm done with residency. I've always heard that the small number of grads every year keeps the job market generally good, but it would be great to have more specifics. Thanks in advance.
