Interviews: After initial application review, we will select eligible applicants for
a brief virtual screening interview in January. We will then invite a
final subset of applicants to participate in a lengthier interview, which
will be scheduled to occur in February. The format of the full interviews
will be informed by you, our applicants. We anticipate a mix of both in-person
(at our clinic in Monroe) and virtual interviews, and will do our best
to accommodate everyone's preferences.
