Pediatric Emergency Medicine blends the fast-paced nature of an ED setting with an innate ability to work with children from birth through adolescence. Your interviewers know that their fellows need to have a wide-ranging skillset to be successful in their program. While most of the candidates they interview for their program will be very skilled clinically, this question allows them to separate the good candidates from the great candidates.

Your answer to this question could include soft skills such as empathy, charity, integrity, and consistency.

"One of my biggest strengths is my ability to be calm, cool, and collected during stressful situations. During my residency training, I faced many stressful situations in the NICU, PICU, and Pediatric ED rotations. My attending physicians knew I had what it takes to think clearly in difficult situations, and I think these natural skills will come in handy during fellowship training with your program."
