Following a review of submitted applications, pre-screens and preliminary interviews will begin in October. Additional interviews, including final rounds will take place in December during ASHP. Candidates will be notified if selected for an interview. The process is rigorous and competitive; therefore, candidates should submit their applications well in advance of posted deadlines as priority will be given to those who apply early.

ASHP Midyear & Onsite Interviews

The fellowship program will not be conducting in-person interviews at the ASHP Midyear Clinical Meeting in Las Vegas, NV.

Top candidates may be invited for interviews at the sponsoring company’s location.

AIFA First Offer Date

The choice of a Post-Doctoral Fellowship is an important decision. MCPHS, in conjunction with the Alliance of Industry Fellowship Associates (AIFA), has aligned to extend offers for Fellowships no earlier than December 12, 2025. We believe this is a positive reflection of the cultures our Programs offer, and that culture is a critical consideration in choice of Fellowship. We hope that other academic and non-academic Fellowship Programs will NOT pressure candidates to accept offers prior to this aligned offer date.

We see this respect for candidate choice as a common aspect of each of our Program's cultures. We hope that other academic and non-academic Fellowship Programs will respect this timeline.

Onboarding

Final candidates will be required to go through additional screening / onboarding as required by MCPHS.
