- Virtual interviews will begin in late October and will extend through early February.
Virtual Interview Experience - What to Expect
Pre-Interview Virtual Social
All applicants are invited to attend a casual social event (via Zoom) on the night prior to the interview day. Hosted by some of our pediatric residents, this will give you a chance to meet and interact with our fun, friendly team. A typical favorite amongst many of our applicants, we hope that this laid-back event gives you a taste of our program!
