The Unified Program Release Date

In an effort to add some additional standardization to the interview scheduling process a group of EM Residency Programs has agreed to use a common interview release date.  Only a subset of programs are able to wait until this date to offer interviews.  Hopefully this can give some reassurance to anyone who is already worried they have not received enough interview offers. 

Here are the details sent out by Dr. Jennie Buchanon, APD at Denver Health:

The County Program of Community Practice is proceeding with the unified interview release date again this year.

  • Unified Release Date October 15th invites out at 12pm Eastern Standard Time
  • October 16th 12pm Eastern Standard Time Interview Broker Opens for scheduling

  1. Is there any update for 2020? What is "Interview Broker"?

    1. Programs are getting applications much later than usual this year: October 21. There may not be a common release date because so many programs are going to be scrambling to get there first round of interview offers out.

      Interview Broker is a scheduling program that some programs use, though ERAS now has their own.
