 Here are the three things that I did to ultimately get into a cardiology fellowship. Number one is focusing on being a great trainee. When you're in residency, the main focus is to become the best doctor you possibly can be and that often comes with just a lot of work ethic and desire to improve on all of your knowledge base, not just cardiology. Number two is focusing on research. Now, I'm not necessarily interested in a long-term field in research, but it is something that can be very valuable to get into a competitive fellowship, so I made sure that I was always working on projects that interested in me, trying to get some output like abstracts and posters. It also showed that I was hardworking and also that I was still interested in cardiology. And number three is constantly communicating with faculties and mentors within the field. I'm saying things like, hey, I'm interested in this field, tell me more about your life, your job, because that helps you understand why you want to go in the field in the first place. Ultimately, when you sit in front of that interviewer asking why should I give you a fellowship spot, ideally you have a more refined answer based off all those conversations and tips you picked up from your mentors and attendings.
