The 2020-2021 application cycle was marked by structural changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Adaptations included the American Orthopaedic Association Council of Residency Program Directors (CORD) recommendations for a universal interview offer day (UIOD), synchronizing applicant interview offer release. As a novel process within orthopaedics, there is limited data on the execution and impact of a UIOD. Study aims include determining: 1) residency program adherence to the CORD UIOD guidelines during the 2020-2021 cycle, 2) how quickly programs filled available interviews, and 3) any difference in time from release to booking between applicants using edu and com email domains.
