job applications: any benefit in phone calls from references?
so I’ll be interviewing at the group I really want to join, based on what I know. They hold two interviews, an initial interview that is offered to a number of applicants, and then a second interview for a few people they really like.
is there a role for having my references (attendings where I did my residency) call them up to say good things about me? I know a few attendings who would definitely go to bat for me and swing for the fences.
if so, when do they call? I’d assume it would be after the first interview.
