Interview Experiences Awesome place relaxed, friendly. This place just felt right for me. Every interview I had here was phenomenal. Your interviewers really put you at ease. They seemed very energetic and happy. Residents were intelligent, humble, and professional. Residents seemed smart, but not dorky. Pleasant interviews. Awesome faculty and residents. Very low key and relaxed. Dinner was great. There was a resident for every applicant. Very laid-back, 4 faculty interviews and lunch Interesting interviewers - 3 in total. 2/3 walked around hospital during interview. Short interview day. Nice, informal dinner the night before. Welcome by PD and department chair. Three faculty interviews and tour by current resident. Closed-door lunch with residents. Very laid-back and conversational interviews. Fantastic! Small applicant group made it more personal. Associate PD gave me a hug before my interview as though we'd known each other for years. Awesome, very laid back day. Walked around hospital on interviews, different style but liked it Felt like the interviewers were really trying to get to know me as a person - like, 'I've already seen your CV. Let's talk about your personality and interests.' Really enjoyable. 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17

Program Disadvantages Low education fund, no real moonlighting until fourth year. Durham will be a disadvantage for some. The weather can be hot in the summer. The IR section is perhaps the weakest section. Otherwise, this place offers an amazing education without a lot of big city hassles. Durham is a small city, with a rural feel. 'Hardworking', a lot of call. I personally didn't want to live in Durham none Durham has good culture for its size, but it's not for people who want to live in a major metro area. Sounds like IR is not very hands on (fellows do the cases). 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17
