As you are being considered for the extremely vital role of a residency program director, your clinical practice with the organization is important as well. Depending on the number of residents with the program, the minimum FTE dedicated to admin support of the program ranges from 0.15 FTE to 0.4 FTE. This leaves other expected time in the clinic. Ahead of even applying for the position, you've hopefully done your homework on the actual clinical practice and see it as a great fit for yourself. Talk openly about your current practice and how you see it transitioning to this institution.

"As you can see on my CV, I've spent the majority of my career focusing on headache and pain management practices and have a lot of published research in both subspecialties. I'd love to continue my work in migraine research and translational research in this area, along with leading this residency program into the future. Dr. Jones and I were able to have further discussions on how my work would transition nicely to this practice. I have a few research grants that are able to move with me as well."
