What's It About?
This unique virtual conference is intended to help physiatrists in-training and newly graduated physiatrists navigate their career paths.
Education
We’ll touch upon topics that are typically not taught in residency, including CV-building strategies, job search advice, interview techniques, contract negotiations and managing personal finances. We will also discuss fellowship and non-fellowship career options, as well as private practice, academic and non-clinical career options.
Panel Q&A
At the end of the session, participants will have the opportunity to ask questions to an esteemed panel of physiatrists from different practice settings, including private practice, academics, hospital-based practice, VA, medical-legal and non-medical.
Please join AAPM&R for this special affair, intended to help you make some of the most important decisions of your career.
