So about a month ago I was at a conference and a residency director asked me if I had a business card for him. I explained that I didnt and then he went on a short speech about how having one is always a good idea for M3/M4 students. He cited that it shows organization and easy access for them to get a hold of you. As if we should go up to the residency director on the first day of an elective and say, "Here's my card with my number and email so if you ever need to get ahold of me you can reach me. I'm willing to come in whenever so please feel free to call me if you see an interesting case or something I could learn from."
I did a search on SDN for this and its a little undecided. Seems like most people make fun of the idea which is what my first reaction was. But some say that if you keep a couple on you it cant hurt. I also found that several schools will print out a few hundred of them for you for free so it must be something that some schools encourage.
Has anyone else been asked for one or have them? Or have opinions.
