This interactive workshop aims
to demystify the “new normal” in clinical hiring and impart strategies and
skills for successfully navigating the market so that participants can be best
positioned to secure the jobs they seek. Participants will hear from and
interact with clinicians who have experience across all facets of the hiring
process. The workshop sessions will address the many different aspects of
the job search, including: the characteristics and trends defining today’s
clinical teaching market and the hiring done within it, entering the market
(evaluating positions and completing FAR forms), initial interviews (at the
AALS Faculty Recruitment Conference or outside the formal process), callbacks,
and receiving and assessing offers. This workshop will fill in gaps for
experienced candidates or those who come from well established and resourced
fellowship programs as well as inform and advise those who are considering
entering the market for the first time or without the benefit of such
resources.
