What impressed you positively?:
Great cases, among the best for cardiac experience. Major chances to make $$ moonlighting in the institution on weekends and $60 an hour if you're ever there past 5. Great new chair who wants to, "love the residents more." Lots of research opportunities. Plenty of big name staff. Report as inappropriate
What impressed you negatively?:
Cleveland is not the safest city in the world and the clinic is not in the nicest part of town although the residents all live in a pretty safe area. Residents all seemed really tired/worn out during the lunch and it did not seem to be anyone's first choice. Report as inappropriate
How was your interview day? Please summarize.:
Awesome hotel (best I've been to in 7 interviews), good dinner with residents (no alcohol was kinda strange), long presentations to start the day, then interviews mixed with tour and followed by lunch. The program director tells you your chances at the end of the day in the "exit interview." I've heard he is vague, but he told me my score out of 1000 total points. Report as inappropriate
