A requirement of our sports medicine fellowship program is providing team coverage, including some off hours. Can you commit to hours outside of general clinic hours?

Explain to your interviewers that you know their program will require you to work evenings and weekends at times. You want to exude excitement for the types of coverage you will be providing, so be sure to research the details of the sports coverage fellows provide on the program's website before your interview.

"I'm honestly very excited to provide coverage at events like the regional marathon and division one sports coverage here at your program. My family and I are ready to put in the time needed for these events because I know these will be a part of my practice down the road."

"I would come to your sports medicine fellowship program ready to put in all the time and effort needed to leave here with all the skills I will need to succeed in practice. My residency training had me working night, evening, and weekend shifts, so this won't be a big change for my family and me."
