Master Your Residency Interview and ERAS Tips Before You Submit | Dr. Simone Bernstein | TrueLearn

When thinking of Residency Match Day, there are two major components that come to mind – residency applications and interviews. 

After you submit your application to your selected programs, you may then be invited to interview at those programs. As you begin thinking about your application and the critical interview process, there are things you will want to consider to prepare for programs to assess whether you’d be a good fit for their specialty. 

During TrueLearn’s 2022 Residency Match Summit, Dr. Simone Bernstein with Inside the Match podcast provided an in-depth session of expert tips and insights on submitting a successful ERAS application. A few key topics of discussion included:

• An overview of essential tips before submitting your ERAS Application 
• A list of interview questions to ask residents and program directors 
• Tips to be successful on virtual interviews 
• Insights into post-interview etiquette 
• Addressing any red flags in your application and on the interview trail
