Fame & Shame

2025–2026 Derm

2 entries

1. Had an attending literally nodding off during interview. Heard this from other applicants as well. It was super jarring and distracting when being asked questions.

2. Their interview day ran over by an hour. It is very disorganized and you spend most of it sitting on a blank zoom screen. I wish they had more regard for applicants time. Absolutely DO NOT schedule another interview on the same day as this one and expect to make it!!!
