I think it depends on the place. I had 1 interviewer last year asked me to walk him through all of my publications. This year, one interviewer asked about the biggest two publications. Overall, I think the questions are still friendly of course but more involved and more specific but I would not describe them as formal. I had only 4 IVs last year though so the sample size is small.
Official 2020-2021 GI Fellowship Application Cycle
- Thread starter UMD2012
- Start date
There were multiple dates but 9/30 wasn’t even an option for me
This season I've had conversational for the most part with some of the higher tier places asking a "curveball" questions just to take you off guard a little bit. Each interviewer has only been able to ask about one publication or research project. There's only so much time so they can't ask about all
Were you able to get in touch with the coordinator on the phone? When I tried to set mine up it just kept going to their office voicemail.

Program dependent, but sometime after all interviews have taken place. Most programs have not revealed their meeting dates, the one that did was reviewing week of October 19th. (I am interviewing through the end of October. If I decide to rank a program 1st that met earlier, my letter of intent may arrive too late to make a difference).
ROL: November 18
Match Day: December 2nd

It's GI, You can see everything you can think of, from one program where the chair will tell you to "impress me" over the next ten minutes to a 4 hour sales pitch to a an actual pimping session...Good luck

Not really much behind it other than their guess and prior match cycles, for AMG average ranks for those who matched was ~10

Fellowship interviews are the last time there will be this obvious power discrepancy. Tables turn and the game changes drastically for jobs. Especially if it’s a clinical academic job but really almost any job.
I think I might have found it. NRMP Charting Outcomes in the Match. People who rank > 8 programs have > 85% chance of matching if I read it correctly. I guess that is a pretty good percentage.

Yes, I received one on Sep 3.
Yes that's the one. I posted the links to the charts and documents earlier in this thread. There are different charts for american MD versus DOs versus IMGs

YES!
haven’t been able to get a good sense of any program, since on paper, most programs are similar. Hard to get a sense of what the fellows are like too....

What does one do when they receive an invite for a program but there are no slots? Do some programs send out invitations to more people then they have interview spots?
What are the dates of IV you got?

This seems like a dick move, though I wouldn't be entirely surprised. If this is on ERAS/thalamus, definitely sign up for waitlist day(s). Might also be worth reaching out to the coordinator to express your commitment to interviewing at their program.
Were there just two interview dates this year? Or did they give some people different dates?

If you spend some time reading the previous posts and notice people intermittently posting a long list of programs sorted by applicant type, you can actually see that oh hey there's programs from NY/NJ that have sent invites. Boom question solved. Ctrl-F is also a really helpful keystroke to find your favorite Empire/Garden State program

Have any of you done the zoom happy hours offered by some programs?
I will never understand the motivations of toxic individuals who hide behind their keyboards while treating strangers with such disrespect and malice, but it betrays an utter lack of class. Good luck next year, though your patients and colleagues may need it more.
No but that sounds extremely awkward and I hope no program will ask me to do it.
seems like half the GI applicants are socially challenged based on my zoom interviews thus far. Some sit there staring at the screen without saying a word or responding to simple greetings from the coordinator in the “group” setting. I can’t imagine how they would be in person interviews.
That mean your pogram is interviewing high score people!! lol

I've done one- it honestly wasn't half bad. Largely depends on the fellow and whether they can keep the conversation going when the interviewees get awkward lol.

Well that escalated quickly. If what I said (actually pointing you in the direction of posts in the thread that answer your very question) is what you consider 'disrespect and malice' 'toxic motivations' and 'lack of class', I have no further comment. Good luck to you, your patients, and colleagues too!

I think the invitation can go till end of Sep, may be even in first week of Oct. Being virtual many took more interviews than normal, this year trends on match and unfilled spots are going to be different.

Oh wow! Really? Kind of sucks that they didn’t notify people who applied.
Any news as to what happened?

Lack of scholarly involvement and missing some required rotations, but it’s just here say from residents.
Thank you very much!!
Is this the consensus of this sub that there are more interviews offered this year compared to other years due to zoom? I think we had a discussion above: if the number of spots and number of applicants are almost the same as last year, the number of interviews offered by program will change the number of IV needed to have a good match.
If the total interviews offer are the same or only slightly more --> number needed to match is probably less (can use 8-10 as baseline) if we assume top candidate will go to more interviews. If the total amount of interviews are A LOT more than usual --> need more than 8-10 to match. Thoughts?
