Virtual interviews play a crucial role in the ranking process. National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) data shows a median number of 23.5 interviews per applicant. Considering this volume of interviews, graduate medical education programs must leverage the virtual pre-interview materials to impact applicants' attitudes and perceptions of the interview beforehand. This study is a secondary data analysis of an anonymous cross-sectional survey collected during two orientation sessions held in June and July 2022. Responses from 123 residents and fellows rated the usefulness of available print and virtual pre-interview resources. Using a 5-point Likert scale, social media sites scored an average usefulness score of 4.0, while the information packet and program website scored 3.88 and 3.90, respectively. This article provides recommendations for restructuring virtual resources to aid residents and fellows, specifically under-represented minorities in medicine (UiM) applicants, in having a quality interview experience.
虚拟面试在排名过程中起着至关重要的作用。美国国家住院医师匹配计划（NRMP）的数据显示，每位申请者的面试中位数为23.5次。考虑到如此大量的面试，毕业后医学教育项目必须利用虚拟面试前材料，提前影响申请者对面试的态度和看法。本研究是对2022年6月和7月举行的两次迎新会期间收集的匿名横断面调查的二次数据分析。123名住院医师和研究员的回答对现有的纸质和虚拟面试前资源的有用性进行了评分。使用5点李克特量表，社交媒体网站的平均有用性得分为4.0，而信息包和项目网站的得分分别为3.88和3.90。本文提供了重组虚拟资源的建议，以帮助住院医师和研究员，特别是医学领域代表性不足的少数群体（UiM）申请者获得高质量的面试体验。
