wildcard Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 What's with this online thing? I've received two emails regarding this today. Is this a new system that Carms has implemented this year for scheduling IM interviews? I did not receive an email of this sort last year, so I'm a little confused.

thebouque Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 I got the message too and I'm a bit confused. What makes you say that it's only for IM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger15lily Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 The body of the email sent to us indicates that it is for IM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelm Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 does anyone know if the schools on the list are final or are we supposed to get more by jan 6th? -m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildcard Posted January 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 I just re-read the email and realized that it applies for all interviews. The reason I thought it was for IM was b/c the email mentions smthg abt IM specifically and also b/c of the timing....most IM invites/rejections will be out Jan 5/6th. I hope this email is an indication of good things (ie: invites) to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistah_g Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 I think this is just for some schools for now. I'm assuming (hoping!) that more will come out in the next couple of days. At least I hope so, given that I only received 3 interviews so far and I applied to 11! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshM Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 My online schedule has McGill, Memorial, and Ottawa listed. Has anyone heard from any other programs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-Stark Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Are you sure it's not just for IM? None of my interviews are showing there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildcard Posted January 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Are you sure it's not just for IM? None of my interviews are showing there. None of my other ones are showing up either. I'm guessing it is just for IM. So, this IS in fact a new thing that Carms has introduced this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo1 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 This interview scheduling tool (http://dom.lhsc.on.ca/carms/) was co-created for all Internal Medicine programs across the country. If one IM program is interested in interviewing the applicant, he/she will receive a notice to log on to schedule/confirm their interview. If multiple IM programs are inviting the applicant to an interview, multiple interview requests will appear after log-in. A new feature has been added this year. McGill is using the service for all of its programs in the R-1 match. This is causing some confusion, since applicants receiving an interview request from a non-IM programs at McGill are assuming that this will be the only interview they will receive in that discipline across the country. This is not the case. All programs at medical schools, other than McGill, are still responsible for coordinating their interviews outside of this service. Please note, this is not a CaRMS service.

lostintime Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 When they say it will open on Jan. 6 for booking interviews, do they mean 12 a.m. on Jan 6 or sometime in the morning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

japlanet Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 When they say it will open on Jan. 6 for booking interviews, do they mean 12 a.m. on Jan 6 or sometime in the morning? Wondering the same thing myself. I would guess that the following times are possibilities - 12am, 8am, 12pm - so I will be checking at those times but I have no idea what is more likely. Has anyone heard anything from last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man_2ba Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I cant even sleep. I dont understand, I did electives at UofT they told me they will interview me, I got no Interview from them. But UoO and Manitoba send me Interviews and McG. I dont understand whats going on. This Year is so weird. I have so many poster presentation in Genetics, Geriatrics.......I dont know whats going on. My CV has mistakes, my personal statement has typos. I swear if I match, it is like how I got my drivers licence and passed the red light. Still no accident or any tickets [knock on wood] but I will be a legend in my School I think. Everyone tells me no to stress, I really appreciate this. but really need to sleep, i hate being on call, I wish I never found this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The overall match rate is >95%, and I gather that you have backed up with family med. Maybe just spend a little less time stressing out and a little more time working on your sentence structure and grammar before your interviews and something will work out.

A-Stark Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 This must only apply to external applicants to Dal IM, as I still don't see anything on the online form. In any case, internal applicants interview on Jan 20th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

register Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Copied from emails and the online scheduler The Interview Scheduling system at http://dom.lhsc.on.ca/carms does NOT include all Universities/Programs across Canada. I have added a link to show all the participating Universities/Programs on the web page. If the University/Program is not listed you will have to contact that university for your interview. Each University/Program are responsible to activate their university to accept interview scheduling. Under the column Web Page Active? if it says No then you will not be able to click on the university name. If it says Yes then click on the unversity name and select your interview date/time. If no universities are listed or a university you feel has or should be accepting you for an interview you must contact that university to select you as a candidate. The Internal Medicine programs will be activating their sites for interview selection at the end of the week other programs may activate on different days. List of schools and programs using the online scheduler The following Universities/Programs participate in our Interview Scheduling System. IMPORTANT: If the University/Program is not listed you must contact them directly to book your interview. This page lists the participating Universities/Programs and is NOT the web page to schedule your interviews which is the orginal page you log into.

japlanet Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 As a PSA for those who check here before the online system itself (not sure why) - each school seems to be coming online individually, some were up at 8am and some 8:30am, most seem to be up by now. Happy scheduling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
