The recruitment process can be long in academic child health but it’s critical to pay even more attention to the final visit as you did for the first one. This is a time of a deep bidirectional conversation, evaluation and understanding of future needs and goals for both candidates and leadership.
These discussions can allow addressing potential future challenges and openly communicate any questions about how the candidate can succeed.
Approached strategically, the final visit can spark long-term collaboration around a shared vision. Listen to the Child Health Advisory Council (CHAC) break down why in the latest Pediatric Insight, “Navigating the Finalist Visit.”
