Allegheny General Hospital

Department of Diagnostic Radiology

The Interview

     Applicants invited to interview will be asked to arrive at 10 AM at the radiology reception desk (01 Level, Snyder Pavilion).  Typically, there will be two to three applicants interviewed each day.  After a brief presentation, each applicant will have a panel interview; the panel will consist of the program director or assistant program director and two other members of the faculty.  We have used the panel interview successfully for the past several years, and the feedback we have received both from candidates and the faculty has been very positive.  If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the program coordinator.  During the day, each applicant will also have the opportunity to interact with our current residents over lunch and have a tour of the campus.  The interview day typically concludes between 2 and 3 PM.
