Year two of virtual interviews: longitudinal changes and diverse perspectives.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic brought the virtual interview (VI) format to graduate medical education (GME) and the trainee recruitment process. It is unclear if applicants' VI experience is consistent across all demographic groups. Our group collected 2 years of survey data to assess longitudinal changes in applicants' attitudes towards the VI format. In addition, demographic data were collected, and analyses were performed to identify if between-group differences were present amongst a diverse applicant population.

Methods

We distributed an anonymous electronic survey to applicants to the pulmonary disease and critical care medicine fellowship programs at Case Western Reserve University/University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center and MetroHealth
