To describe the implementation and effect of an interviewing skills workshop (ISW) on student confidence on various interviewing techniques.
A student directed ISW was offered to student pharmacists of all years within the doctor of pharmacy curriculum. There were five stations that student pharmacists rotated through every 12 min: a panel interview, group interview, teleconference interview, video conference interview, and a case station where student pharmacists were given a clinical or ethical case. Stations were staffed by faculty, alumni, and pharmacy residents. Student pharmacists completed a survey directly following the workshop to rate their confidence with the stations prior to and after the activity. Feedback on the activity was solicited from the student pharmacists and those who participated as interviewers.
Twenty-eight student pharmacists participated in the ISW with an 85.7% response rate to the survey (n = 24). All students reported wanting to pursue a career requiring a residency and found the ISW to be beneficial. Average student confidence improved significantly from neutral to confident. Students reported positive themes of feedback and practice while requesting more time for each session and practice with group interviews and ethical situations. Interviewers noted building positive relationships with students and other faculty members. Opportunities for improvement included timing and providing more background information about the student pharmacists.
A student-led ISW was found to be beneficial in improving confidence in student pharmacists. Student pharmacists' confidence increased in all types of interviews and with the clinical case.
描述面试技巧工作坊(ISW)的实施情况及其对学生在各种面试技巧方面信心的影响。
面向药学博士课程各年级的学生药剂师举办了一场由学生主导的ISW。共有五个站点,学生药剂师每12分钟轮换一次:小组面试、集体面试、电话会议面试、视频会议面试,以及一个向学生药剂师提供临床或伦理案例的案例站点。各站点由教师、校友和药学住院医师担任工作人员。学生药剂师在工作坊结束后立即完成一项调查,以评估他们在活动前后对各站点的信心。向学生药剂师和作为面试官参与的人员征求了对该活动的反馈意见。
28名学生药剂师参加了ISW,调查回复率为85.7%(n = 24)。所有学生都表示希望从事需要住院医师培训的职业,并认为ISW有益。学生的平均信心从一般显著提高到自信。学生们报告了反馈和练习方面的积极主题,同时要求为每个环节安排更多时间,并增加集体面试和伦理情境方面的练习。面试官指出与学生及其他教师建立了积极的关系。有待改进的方面包括时间安排以及提供更多关于学生药剂师的背景信息。
发现由学生主导的ISW有助于提高学生药剂师的信心。学生药剂师在所有类型的面试以及临床案例方面的信心都有所增强。
