Twenty-nine of 51 fellows responding reported having successfully
secured a post fellowship appointment (57%) while 22 (43%) had not yet
secured positions. Five fellows (10%) reported that they had a position
nearly secured or secured but that was now in question or on hold due to
hiring freezes related to COVID-19. Ten fellows reported they were still
actively interviewing for positions. Nine of 37 program directors (25%)
responded they would consider temporarily reappointing their fellow as
an instructor beyond the end date of the fellowship year in order to
support their transition to permanent employment elsewhere.
