PGP Fundamentals: Residency Showcases and Open Houses

This episode is all about all about Residency Showcases and Open Houses. Joining us is Dr. Katie Knight, a former PGY1 resident at Ascension Sacred Heart in Pensacola, Florida and current clinical pharmacist. At the time of the recording, Dr. Knight was still completing her residency and the episode is being released 6 months later. Questions we discuss: * What recruiting mechanisms programs are currently using, including virtual and in-person showcases and open houses. * Differences and similarities between showcases and open houses. * Benefits of showcases and open houses * If the Midyear showcase attendance necessary to get a residency This episode's take-aways: * Showcases are generally held systematically at large meetings or conferences and can happen locally or nationally. * Open houses are generally virtually and occur at various times depending on program availability * Some open houses are joint if under a large health system * How to find out about open houses: School/College of Pharmacy faculty and administrators (if they are contacted by programs); Listservs from professional organizations; Social media accounts from programs * If planning to stay local and apply only to local program, consider only attending local showcases (state and surrounding states) instead of going to Midyear as well to save financially. * Benefit of attending a showcase or open house is to create a comprehensive understanding of a program and obtain insight that is not included on the program website, but also get a sense of community of what it would be like to train at a given program. What should you do now? * Identify programs you are interested in. * Determine if you would benefit from attending a regional or local showcase or if a national showcase is more feasible (depending on your geographic limitations) * Determine if the program is holding an open house if travel to a national meeting is not feasible. What should you do later? * Develop a list of questions to ask programs at a showcase or open house. * Continue to research and monitor program social media accounts to determine when/if they will hold open houses.
