Interventional Pain Physician job opportunity in Austin Tx

I’m a physician in Austin and my wife works for Advanced Pain Care. They’re looking to hire an interventional pain physician, and I told her I’d post here and see if anyone might be interested.
It’s a large pain practice in Austin/Central Texas. Most of the physicians are anesthesia or PM&R trained, and they also have neurosurgery, ortho, neurology, rheumatology, addiction medicine, PT, etc. Pretty much bread-and-butter interventional pain with PA support.
From what I understand, compensation is more than very competitive for pain, plus bonuses. Schedule is 8–5 Mon–Thurs and half-day Friday. Most locations are in the Austin area, with some clinics in the surrounding cities 10-30 minute drive from downtown Austin.
I’m not a recruiter and don’t know every detail of the contract, but I know the practice and a lot of the physicians there and they’re very happy. If anyone is actually interested or just curious about the job, DM me and I can put you in touch with my wife.

PM&R doctor in Florida touting intradiscal ozone injection therapy as treatment for degenerative disc disease

Also uses fibrin injection. Neither of these treatments have any evidence they work.

Multiple case studies of complications from intradiscal ozone therapy. Also some showing poor quality of studies with poor response to treatments

Residency interview prep resources

Interview season is coming up so I figured I'd put together some of the better resources I've found. Hope you find it useful

AAMC Residency & Fellowship Applicant Interview Preparation Guide

probably the best place to start. covers what to expect, how to prepare, different question formats, behavioral questions, interview day, etc.

AAMC common residency interview questions

Most common questions that you must definitely practice before heading into your first interview: tell me about yourself, why this specialty, why our program, strengths/weaknesses, research, difficult situations, career goals, etc.

AAMC virtual interview guide

worth going through if your interviews are virtual. covers setup/tech but also behavioral, general and situational questions and how to practice them.

NRMP Match Code of Conduct for Applicants

not really a "how to answer questions" resource, but I think everyone should read it at least once before interviews. lays out expectations around professional behavior and communication during recruitment/interviews.

AMA residency interview guide

shorter and more practical than the AAMC guide. has common questions, behavioral interview advice, things to research before the interview, and questions you can ask programs.

Residency interview question bank

if you've gone through the official resources and just need questions to actually practice with, this has ~200 questions organized by category including behavioral, ethics, teamwork, conflict, IMG and specialty-specific questions.

Looking to make this a live resource so lmk if I missed any!
