In the application process for Emergency Medicine (EM) residencies, the tacit start date for offering interviews has been November 1, the day the Medical Student Performance Evaluations (MSPEs) are released. We hypothesized that even before November 1, a large number of our applicants had already received "early" invitations to interview this year. We anonymously surveyed our program's EM interviewees with a survey that included two questions: "Did you receive any interview invitations before November 1?" and "Please list the programs that offered you interview invitations before November 1." Of 82 interviewees, 73 completed the survey (89%). Seventy-seven percent of respondents (56/73) were offered an interview before November 1. At least 59 of the 135 (44%) EM residencies send early invitations. The majority of our interviewees did receive early invitations. It cannot be ignored that at least 59 programs offer early invitations. This information has implications both for student advisors and residency programs.
在急诊医学（EM）住院医师培训项目的申请过程中，默认的面试邀请开始日期一直是11月1日，即医学生表现评估（MSPEs）发布的那一天。我们推测，甚至在11月1日之前，我们的大量申请者就已经收到了今年的“提前”面试邀请。我们对本项目的急诊医学面试者进行了匿名调查，调查包含两个问题：“你在11月1日之前收到过任何面试邀请吗？”以及“请列出在11月1日之前向你发出面试邀请的项目”。在82名面试者中，73人完成了调查（89%）。77%的受访者（56/73）在11月1日之前收到了面试邀请。135个急诊医学住院医师培训项目中至少有59个（44%）发出了提前邀请。我们的大多数面试者确实收到了提前邀请。至少有59个项目发出提前邀请，这一点不容忽视。这一信息对学生导师和住院医师培训项目都有影响。
