To describe the offering of the residency boot camp activity at one college of pharmacy for students in their fourth professional year.
Student pharmacists in their final professional year of pharmacy school were invited to participate in a voluntary residency boot camp activity. Originally, the activity consisted of four parts: (1) guidance on preparing for residency interviews; (2) a 1:1 mock interview with a resident, faculty member, residency preceptor or area program director; (3) a review of the student's curriculum vitae (CV) and letter of intent; and (4) a review of the application timeline and process. Based on the feedback, the activity was changed to include five parts: (1) orientation/welcome session, (2) mock interview, (3) case presentation, (4) podium presentation, and (5) a debriefing session on the day's activities and to answer any remaining student questions about the residency application process. In the second offering of the residency boot camp, students were invited to complete a voluntary pre- and post-assessment of their perceived readiness for residency interviews. The activity has evolved based on student feedback to focus predominately on the group and 1:1 interviews.
Since starting the activity in 2013, 14 of the 21 students (67%) from the class of 2014, 16 of the 25 students (64%) from the class of 2015 and 24 of the 26 students (92%) from the class of 2016 that applied for residency training participated in the residency boot camp activity. For the Fall 2014 offering where a survey was conducted, the pre- and post-survey instrument used a Likert Scale, ranging from "strongly disagree" (score of 1) to "strongly agree" (score of "5").
and conclusions: Simulated exercises such as a residency boot camp can expose student pharmacists to important interview readiness skills. Student pharmacists involved in this activity demonstrated a perceived positive effect of such activities.
描述一所药学院为四年级学生提供的住院医师培训预备营活动。
药学院最后一学年的学生药剂师受邀参加一项自愿的住院医师培训预备营活动。该活动最初包括四个部分：（1）住院医师面试准备指导；（2）与住院医师、教员、住院医师带教老师或地区项目主任进行一对一模拟面试；（3）审查学生的简历和意向书；（4）审查申请时间线和流程。根据反馈，该活动改为包括五个部分：（1）迎新/欢迎会；（2）模拟面试；（3）病例展示；（4）讲台展示；（5）当天活动的总结会，并回答学生关于住院医师申请流程的任何剩余问题。在第二次提供住院医师培训预备营活动时，邀请学生完成一份关于他们对住院医师面试准备程度的自愿性前后评估。该活动根据学生反馈不断发展，主要侧重于小组面试和一对一面试。
自2013年开展该活动以来，2014届的21名学生中有14名（67%）、2015届的25名学生中有16名（64%）以及2016届的26名学生中有24名（92%）申请住院医师培训的学生参加了住院医师培训预备营活动。在2014年秋季开展的活动中进行了一项调查，调查前后使用的工具采用李克特量表，范围从“强烈不同意”（1分）到“强烈同意”（5分）。
住院医师培训预备营等模拟练习可以让学生药剂师接触到重要的面试准备技能。参与该活动的学生药剂师表现出此类活动有积极效果。
