How would your current resident colleagues and faculty describe working with you?

"My current resident colleagues and mentoring physicians wouldn't hesitate to tell you that I am compassionate, fun, and hardworking. From a young age, my father instilled in me the 'work hard, play hard' attitude, and he preached that loving what you do is important. Over the last three years in residency, my resident colleagues have loved the fact that I had fun in my work no matter how difficult times got."

Before your Ultrasound Fellowship interviews, think about how your references will describe working with you. Present yourself as a great communicator, a great team player, and a hard worker. Don't hesitate to talk about your interesting quirks, as long as they prove your ability to be a great fellow and colleague. If you've ever received direct feedback from faculty members or colleagues, this is a great time to discuss that feedback.
