Hi all:
I am writing this on behalf of my sister-in-law. She just had her first interview for residency today. And within 10 minutes, they offered her a positin in internal medicine. Apparently, they offer most of the residency sits through matching and a few by themselves.
She has 5 other interviews lined up in next five weeks. So, she was wondering if she should go ahead and take the first offer.
Little background..she is a foreign medical graduate, and has greencard.
The program director will not likely give her enough time to find out about other hospitals. So..if she chooses to wait, she will loose this opportunity. And given the fact that it is very difficult for foreign grads to get residency..she is very concerned and confused.
She asked me to post this here, so that she could some good feedback from some of you.
Thanks and have a good day.
