Abstract

The objective of this project is to evaluate the usefulness of the asynchronous or standardized video interview (SVI) for selecting integrated interventional radiology residents. All selected interviewees were asked to provide a brief recorded video answering 2 standardized questions. The applicants were interviewed in the virtual real-time format by 8 interviewers and ranked by group consensus. The SVIs were independently reviewed by a separate group of 4 interviewers and ranked by group consensus. These consensus ranks were compared to each other to determine similarities and differences in rank order. The results show that the SVIs are not statistically reliable as compared to the real-time interviews. There was a trend for an agreement for the lowest tiers in ranking; however, this was not statistically significant. The asynchronous interview is not equivalent to the virtual real-time interview and would not represent an equivalent replacement. However, the SVI may be useful for screening applicants to interview.
