Faculty and resident respondents to a recent
survey about the dermatology residency application process (J Am Acad
Dermatology 2018;79:157-159) found that “Nearly 80% of both faculty and
residents believe that applicants who interview via videoconferencing
are not considered equally when compared with those who interview
in-person.” Videoconferencing has the potential to lower application
costs by decreasing travel expenses.
