Agree. CV is more important in academics. Someone can have a great CV, train at the top institutions, be so arrogant/think so highly of him or herself that it becomes hard to work with that person. Even worse they think they know it all when they don’t.CV is not that important.
Hopefully you can spot candidates that are reasonably independent.
This is not something that residency and fellowship teaches these days
You don’t need to go to Ivy League to be a good or great pathologist in private practice. As long as you have several of the qualities I mentioned you will do just fine.
Independence comes with confidence and confidence comes with signout experience. The more you push that signout button (while knowing that you can be sued for any mistakes), the more confident and independent you will become. However, most fellowships don’t give you signout experience.
