Do program coordinators/directors talk about candidates and emails/letters they sent?

  #2

What do you mean exactly?
Regarding candidates' application, Yes.
Regarding ROL, No.

Do you mean from program to program? Only if the PD in derm wants me to interview/rank someone that he thinks would be great.

Outside of the hospital? Nope - I don't really care who applied to Bob Smith hospital down the road.

BTW, if a candidate sends too many letters/emails is it bad, good, or doesn't matter?
Thanks again!

BBB wont tell u the inside story .I will

Programs come together for a daily lunch .PDs wear a ghostly robe and play wrestling and while one pd is down on another they covertly exchange secrets about candidates and make deals .

While I am in favor of more laxative for Your PD ,i do believe that your coffee consumption should be curtailed .You drink in excess .I wonder if your house mortgage is owned by Starbucks and You have to watch videos in fast-forward .smiling face >>let alone the fact that your only source of nutrition is "sweet and Low" shocked

Forgive my audacity .

Not Starbucks - it tastes burned. Great Creme Brule flavored this morning. Yesterday you made me waste Trader Joe's Wintery Blend with extra cinnamon. Mortgage is AB Amro. Never Sweet and Low - either Equal or Splenda.

Don't you know me by now??
