Maternal-fetal medicine fellow experience in the first year of training compared to interview expectations based on interview modality.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Virtual interviews for Maternal-Fetal Medicine (MFM) fellowship have been feasible and successful with significant cost and time savings. However, there are concerns about an applicant's ability to accurately evaluate a program virtually. The objective of this study was to evaluate MFM fellows' experience in their fellowship training program at the completion of their first year compared to their expectations of the program based on their interview, comparing fellows who interviewed in-person to those who interviewed virtually.

Methods

A novel cross-sectional online survey was distributed to all first-year MFM fellows in the final class to undergo in-person interviews (2021), as well as those who were the first to interview virtually (2022) at accredited programs
