QUESTION 30 OF 30

What is something unique about yourself that we can't find on your CV?

The surgical critical care fellowship you are interviewing with will pay close attention to each candidate's CV and the clinical, academic, and scholarly success they will bring to their program. To them, finding a great match with the culture of their institution is equally important, and a question like this allows them to learn a bit more about who you are and what type of person they'd be getting if you match there.

"I'm very passionate about woodworking. My uncle taught me this skill during high school, and I continued to pursue it through shop classes. I love to create new and useful things for myself, my friends, and my family. Recently, I've gotten into woodcarving, and it's been quite fun to learn more on top of building bed frames and cabinetry."

While you cannot share everything about your personal life and accomplishments on your CV, there must be something you are proud of that you would like to share. If possible, share something about yourself that shows the interviewers you would be a good fit for their surgical critical care fellowship program. This is a great chance to differentiate yourself from others they will consider ranking, so take advantage of the moment.
