Innovative recruitment strategy eases financial burden on residents

By: Julie McCoy September 9th, 2009

Kaiser Permanente (KP) is offering a virtual recruitment session for medical students interested in applying to their residency programs this Saturday, Sept. 12.

A KP press release states that the online open house is the organization’s response to the increasing financial burdens medical students face (student loans, weak economy). Instead of flying out to visit the program, applicants can speak with program directors and current residents via the Web.

If you’re interested in learning more about this event, log on and see for yourself how it runs. The open house lasts from 10:30am-12pm PST on Saturday. Simply log onto http://www.videonewswire.com/event.asp?id=61401
