Re: Matching
InSitu - 02-27-08 13:44 As far as following up who matched and who did not its not a fair question to ask since the factors of getting is not controlled by Electronic Residency. You are hiring Electronic resdency to send your application and Electronic Residency sends your application faster that anyone and its goal is to deliver so you get a higher chnce to be contacted. Getting the position is the applicant's job of how well the interview is conducted over the phone and if the applicants really impressed that person they talked to. Last year (2006 scramble) Electronic Residency has suceeded in having 70% of its members looked by the programs but that 70% is still unfair because many programs just used the contact docuemtn Sent by electronic Residency to call the applicant directly and that ELectronic Residency can not track.
Think of Electronic Residency as a submission system and not as connection to get guaranteed position. If you want fast email and fax submission then you have them.
