Child Psychiatry 2018-2019 Cycle

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
So what to expect in interviews then? Should we prepare same as we did for residency; like where do you see yourself in 5 years and whatever?

I would assume that interviews would entail parts of the PS w/ specific experiences in residency that have lead to a strong interest in CAP (nothing new). Also a detailed explanation of *interests/specialized fields/research in the specific CAP program applied to*
I would suggest to approach the IVs even more intentional than residency IVs, if that makes sense.

Any CAP around for feedback?

My CAP attending said it’s the same questions from residency interviews.

1) Why psychiatry? Why child psychiatry specifically?
2) What draws you to this specific fellowship program?
3) Any ties to area?
4) What are your strengths and weaknesses?
5) What are your specific areas of interest in child psychiatry, academics, and research?
6) What are your plans after fellowship?
7) What are your hobbies/ interest outside medicine?
8) *Gives ethical scenario* What would you do in this situation? (No right or wrong answer just a question to see how you think)
9) Tell me about yourself...

Hey guys,
I posted that earlier but only started seeing a few programs using this tab and not all of them.
There is an interview tab on applicants' ERAS page. I called ERAS and they said that we are supposed to see interview invites there and they have to be added by programs not applicants. Called the program and they had no idea it existed or how to add it on there. I was wondering if anyone can see their IV on there? Or any insight if this is crucial to confirm appointment?

For all my interview offers, they were either scheduled via personal email or over the phone. I checked that tab and none of them show up on that interview section. It seems to be a program-specific preference

Seems like it! Thanks for replying :)

I've scheduled one interview via that ERAS IV section. A CAP program sent a message through ERAS earlier in the week saying that the IV dates available were posted there. I selected one date (program dates were listed), and it appears blocked out after confirming selection. I checked a few hours later and most all of the other IV dates for that program became blocked out. Glad I snagged it quickly.
 
Does anyone know anything about the call schedules/# of inpatient months for any of the below programs? The websites do not have a lot of information. Thanks in advance!

1. UT Austin
2. Vanderbilt
3. Duke
4. Brown
5. UVM
6. Yale
7. Columbia
8. UNC

No. Not as a rule though individual programs may require this which makes no sense. but if you are interesting in california you should apply for a license asap. It will be too late to apply for a license if you wait until you find out if you've matched in california.

Waiting on two East Coast programs and one Midwest program here. Anyone else?

**(Now just one East Coast and one Midwest program)

One Midwest, one east coast and 2 west coast that I know won’t send out until september. I’m assuming Laurie’s hasn’t yet?

Yeah seems like Lurie's hasn't been sent out yet.

(I was just looking at last year's, Lurie's sent out invites the second week of August.)

Hope they're all having nice summer vacations

I received an interview invite from Stanford yesterday through ERAS and was told to email the program coordinator directly. Still haven’t heard back and now worried she didn’t see my email and that interview dates are getting filled up. Anyone else in the same position??

How many interviews are people shooting for? I applied to 10 because I’m geographically restricted but now that I’m starting to pay for my flights/hotels I’m wondering if I need to do all 10 lol

Same boat here. I think it's important to consider desired region(s) as tops (where the interviewee wants to live in for fellowship; might even settle down and work a bit in), program fit, and/or program ranking (only if ranking matters to interviewee). I noticed you've got some very good program invites.

As for myself, I was thinking the same thing earlier. 8 interview invites total, with 5 or 6 of interest. Just waiting on 2 more - totaling exactly 10 invites. Going to all 10 is impractical and costly. It will most likely be 6. I would think it's hard to get good invites only to set aside those for the prioritization of others, but if that's what needs to be--I say just do you.

@SpacemanSpiff28 just curious as to how you decided to apply to such a (geographical) assortment of programs.

Wisconsin, Texas, North Carolina, Missouri, Minnesota, Hawaii, California, Colorado, Massachusetts, New York, Illinois... and some of those statrs have you lined up for multiple programs.

You're like the Bear Grylls meets Carmen San Diego of the C&A fellowship circuit.
Does your residency give you unlimited days for travel and interviews?

Your application must be strong and impressive to generate such a response from such different programs. Are you hoping to see as much as you can to get a taste for different programs? Or looking to see where you might best want to live in the US?

I think they send later than everyone else (just what I heard so don’t quote me lol). My colleague applied to nothing but Cali places and only got 2 invites so far. Maybe contact some of your favorites and see what their timeline is?

May be a silly question, but is this for residency or fellowship?
if not the latter.... you can start applying? I thought apps are sent out the 15th? Maybe I'm just confused...

Thanks! Maybe we’ll run into each other at some of our Northeast programs. I haven’t gotten a good sense of how “competitive” these fellowships are and how many people should rank. Obviously pretty personal given how different people’s CVs will be. I’m overly anxious so I may end up doing all the ones I get invited to though... haha

Last year wasn't competitive, but I get the feeling this year is going to be more competitive than last. Judging on the interview invites posted (thanks all), when you think about it, it's a small group of people compared to the entire interview pool. I am focusing on travel itinerary to distract myself from on-and-off anxiety. Now I am currently thinking of getting a pizza at Yale...mmm Connecticut pizza haha.

Kudos to you for potentially doing all ten. I read in a CAP post somewhere that eight is a good safety net for CAP ranking, though other people have mentioned before they've gotten their third choice and above (like last year's thread). I guess, on a subjective level, match rankings might be determined by fit more than ever before. It's good perspective to always remember that it's just like med school and residency - all you need is one match and you're set!

Yeah, unfortunately my partner already matched so I only really have 1 place I want to be! At a competitive place too... oh well!

I think dassie meant matched last year?

Different sub specialties match on different timelines - lots of surgical subspecialties match a full year before your fellowship starts

How do we know if the program offers positions out of the match? Do we ask them upfront? Thanks

I’ve had one program tell me at the interview and another program include it within their invite to help you decide to accept or decline. I saw other ones put it on their website. What I was told is that Midwest programs/smaller city programs will more than likely prematch out of fear of not filling (not because they’re “bad” but the location is less desirable than the coasts). I haven’t found out the etiquette about asking before interviews though.

They can do that? It’s not all in or all out?
