I know that most of you are pre-meds, but I also know some of you have relatives or close friends working as doctors already. I was wondering if you would interview them for me, or even if you already know the answer to most of these questions you could also answer them. I greatly appreciate your time!

1. What do you like most about your job and why?
2. What do you like least about your job and why?
3. How did you decide to get into this field, and what steps did you take to enter the field? What alternative ways can one enter this field?
4. What training would you recommend for someone who wanted to enter this field now? What skills and background are needed to get into this field now?
5. What potential qualities do you feel are most important in your work and why?
6. What are the tasks you do in a typical work day? Would you describe them?
7. What types of stress do you experience on your job?
8. What related occupations might I investigate?
9. What type of people survives and does well in this field? Entry level to top salary?
10. Is there anything else about this field that would be helpful for me to know?

Thank you

Brenda
