The National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) -- also known as "The Match" -- is used to place U.S. medical school students into residency training programs, and occurs during a student's fourth-year of medical school.

ICOM alumni Jenna Farmer, DO and Marcus Capizzano, DO  join Brian, Stephanie and Dr. Rau to discuss their experiences navigating the NRMP and offer advice to med students. 

Dr. Farmer is currently completing her Family Medicine residency with the Family Medicine Residency of Idaho in Nampa, ID; and Dr. Capizzano is currently completing a Family Medicine residency at the Osteopathic Medical Education Consortium of Oklahoma in Tulsa, OK.
