I just wanted to see what other people's experiences with this. I've only been on two interviews, and had very different experiences with the resident dinner the night before.
At my first interview, probably half or more of the residents in the program showed up, many of them coming straight from work, or stopping by for a very short time, but stopping by none-the-less.
The second interview has less than 5 residents show up (in a program with more than 40), and they didn't show up in high numbers for the interview day lunch either (I personally only spoke to 1-2 residents after lunch, one of whom came to the dinner the night before).
Someone told me the latter may be typical, but then a friend of mine interviewed somewhere else today and said that a lot of people showed up to the resident dinner and made an effort to get to know and talk to the applicants.
Thoughts?
