2020-2021 Pain Fellowship Interview Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
There are channels to report ERAS concerns. This may be one worthwhile.

I don't think it's fair to blame UTSA. Applications opened up in November. The pandemic didn't hit us until the middle of March. It's not like programs could've predicted this.

Thats fine, but a refund would still be warranted.

Technically this would be an NRMP violation as ERAS is just a universal application form, and you're promising matchable positions outside the match, but there's a lot of wriggle room in the rules for institutions/PDs to hide behind.


You can complain to ERAS about the unfairness of fees from a program that was never going to participate in the match, but I'm not sure they care.
 
Thats fine, but a refund would still be warranted.
But they could have stayed in the match knowing they were going to only take in house applicants due to COVID, so them letting us know early let’s you know you won’t match there and can not keep them as a possible match. So we can focus on other programs and not waste an interview?
 
Right but we still paid to apply.

i don't know the names but a friend at another institution who matched internally, was told by a fellow there that due to COVID, programs with a high number of internal applicants may just take all internal but i cannot guarantee how accurate this is. But it may be why many people are not getting as many interviews this year, as normal bc places know who they are going to take so they are not sending invites?

either way, i wouldn't worry about it, plus if a program wants to take all internal applicants, that is their decision but not a violation...

I didn't have invite or reject from UTSW, it seems that I am on the waiting list or silently rejected?

it might become a unusual year. More program would take internal applicant, instead of outside
 
Thats fine, but a refund would still be warranted.

I called ERAS and informed them of this concern yesterday. They said they will be reaching out to AAMC to let them know since they were not aware; they asked for names of specific programs. I only know of one so far. And perhaps they can arrange a refund is what I was told

Appreciate that program's honesty (at least told us), but most program won't say anythings.
 
Has anyone heard from the university of chicago coordinator about the interviews?
 
anyone got any confirmation from cedars-sinai? They asked for preference date and then never heard back from them. Did they end up just filling the spots with internal applicants too?

they’ll get back to you. Took them a while to get back to me but they eventually did -a couple days before the interview date. They have not filled internally.

Yeah from what I recall, UCLA is the one that will fill outside the match, maybe not solely with internal applicants though

What do people think about the zoom interviews?

I sort of feel like it is really hard to 'give a good impression' or 'stand out' versus doing a face-to-face interview. I kind of leave the interview having no way of knowing how I did or how I stand with the program. With in person interviews I could usually tell by the tone how things were going or if I fit in with the program or not. I don't really feel anything after the zoom interview.

Agree. I feel like my personality is not shining and everything is forced. Also can a brother get some interviews! Is it as quiet for everyone else? I am assuming 65 percent of interviews have been given out based on the list. Is anyone else finding it hard to get invites or am I the only one.

same here, I haven't gotten one in a while.

RE Cedars-Sinai. Also requested this date. Also have not heard back anything despite multiple emails/phone calls :shrug:. Would have been nice if they had at least told us they couldn't interview us anymore.

Yeah, it messed up my schedule as I had to use up a "non-clinical" day. Oh well

Did anybody interviewing with West LA VA receive an email confirmation on the interview date/details, as the invitation came way by a phone call?

Hey does anyone have any idea how many applicants typically interview at a program? I’m sure it is variable per program but I had heard rule of thumb was approximately 10 interviewees per spot

Probably depends on how many internal applicants, but 5-10 applicants per spot is a good range.

FREIDA has this data on a lot of programs if you look through the program profiles. I have no idea how accurate it is though.

Definitely still some heavy hitter programs that haven't sent out interviews....Mayo, BID, BWH, Cornell, Penn, Hopkins. And then some smaller but reputable ones like UTMB, NYU, Tech, TAMU.
