It's July/August and this is the time when residents and fellows start their new chapter of their lives.

In this special episode, Chadi tackles the fellowship application process using the "hematology/oncology" fellowship as an example, while keeping the conversation broad to most other fellowships in other disciplines. To better understand the process and the issues, he has invited a fellowship program director and a fellow applicant.

Marc Braunstein, fellowship program director at NYU Langone Health, and Megan Melody, a fellow at Northwestern, discuss the intricacies of applying for internal medicine fellowships. They delve into what makes a strong application, the various types of fellowship programs, and the perspectives of both applicants and program directors in the matching process, including how to write a compelling personal statement, secure strong references, and choose which programs to visit, as well as so much more.
