title: Selection of podiatric surgical residents.
abstract: The actual process for selecting surgical residents is plagued with inadequacies. Two of those problems, namely the evaluation of the application and the interview itself, are addressed in this paper. An attempt has been made to standardize both in hopes of making the experience more objective.
