When Drew Ellefson, M.D., interviewed for a neonatology fellowship at ChristianaCare, a three-hospital healthcare system in Delaware, in 2012, he wore his military uniform. “I’m probably one of the only interviewees in the country to show up to a civilian fellowship interview in military gear, but I did it because I was an active duty major and that’s how I presented myself,” says Dr. Ellefson, who served as a brigade surgeon and a pediatrician during his seven years in the United States Army. To his surprise, his interview attire was “not only accepted, but it was applauded,” he says, “so I felt really at home right away starting from that first interview.”
