Message: <blockquote data-quote="LTS6776" data-source="post: 6567820" data-attributes="member: 201062">I come from a program which traditionally did not put much effort into its interview day.  The decision to really improve our interview season really came from our residents, who put in a ton of effort and extra time re-vamping the day and communicating with our applicants.  I think it really paid off- people seemed to have a more favorable view of the program and we got to know a lot of great med students that were going into our specialty, even if they didn't match with us.That being said, our program is no better than it was last year, so I'm not sure it says a whole lot as to the quality of the program!  At a lot of programs, program coordinators (rather than Program Directors or Chiefs) run the interview process, so the quality of the day is often a reflection of them.  And usually the quality of the program coordinator is not going to make or break your residency experience.Also, keep in mind when interviewing around the Christmas and New Years holidays, you might not get the best representation of a program, as many attendings and residents are away and the others are covering for those who are away.</blockquote>
