Your interviewers ask this question for two reasons. First, they want to ensure that any common myths about becoming a Pediatric Critical Care Fellow are debunked for prospective fellows who have worries that aren't true. Second, they want to hear how you are working on the areas in which you are not confident.

"I have all of the confidence in the world in the clinical skills I've developed over the last three years of Pediatric Residency training. I know that I will be mastering new skills in clinical and procedural practice during PICU Fellowship training, and I'm not worried on that end. The only thing that might keep me up at night is integrating quickly with the existing team of senior fellows. I am a firm believer in cohesiveness on a team, and this is honestly a pressure that I put on myself. If I were to match into your program, I would make getting to know my colleagues a priority in my initial days."

Rather than focusing on a potential deficit in your ability to perform as a PICU Fellow, openly talk about any questions you may have upon joining this PICU Fellowship program. If you feel that your training and skills are lacking in any area, discuss that and have a plan for getting up to speed if you were to match into this program.
