Program Description

Abstract Background Microsurgery fellowship applicants make decisions for future training based on information obtained from colleagues, mentors, and microsurgery fellowship program Websites (MFWs). In this study, we sought to evaluate the accessibility and quality of available information by microsurgery programs by analyzing the most commonly used web resources and social media outlets for applicants. Methods The San Francisco (SF) Match and American Society of Reconstructive Microsurgery Websites were queried in April 2020 for microsurgery fellowship programs (MFPs) participating in the SF Match. Twenty-two independent variables of information were assessed on MFWs based on previously published data. Social media presence was also assessed by querying Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter for official hospital, plastic surgery residency, and microsurgery fellowship accounts. Results All 24 MFWs participating in the SF Match had a webpage. Program description, faculty listing, operative volume, and eligibility requirements were listed for all programs (100%). The majority of MFWs listed affiliated hospitals (75%), provided a link to the fellowship application (66.7%), listed interview dates (66.7%), and highlighted research interests (50%). A minority of MFWs provided information on conference schedule (37.5%), current fellow listing (25%), previous fellow listing (16.67%), and positions held by previous fellows (8.33%). No MFWs (0%) presented information on selection process, or rotation schedule.All hospitals with an MFP had a Facebook page and nearly all had Instagram (83.3%) and Twitter accounts (95.8%). Plastic surgery residency programs at the same institution of an MFP had social media presence on Facebook (38.9%), Twitter (38.9%), and Instagram (66.7%). Only three MFPs had Facebook accounts (12.5%) and none had Instagram or Twitter accounts. Conclusion As the field of microsurgery continues to grow, the need for effective recruitment and training of microsurgeons continues to be essential. Overall, we conclude that both the accessibility and quality of information available to applicants are limited, which is a missed opportunity for recruitment.

Recruitment And Selection

Active recruiting is built as a recruitment strategy using computer technology in HR management. The electronic recruiting system improves the quality of interaction between candidates and company managers. Web sites, social networks, and messengers allow building communication with a potential employee on-line. The choice of recruiting methods should be as relevant as possible and formed according to the results of the analysis of the selection funnel. Based on the conversion of the selection stages in the funnel, one can calculate how many candidates are needed to close the vacancy and identify the selection problems. Optimization of the recruitment and selection process using modern methods and tools will allow the company to attract the most qualified and efficient employees. A well-developed staff recruitment system will increase the personnel potential and achieve the strategic goals of the company.

Internet And Social Media

BACKGROUND Physician Internet and social media presence is increasingly common as a sophisticated patient population and referral base continues to seek information when selecting an orthopedic surgeon. OBJECTIVE We hypothesized that American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) Fellows of fewer than 20 years would have a higher Internet and social media presence when compared to AAOS fellows of more than 20 years. We limited our analysis regionally to San Francisco, California. METHODS A current list of AAOS Fellows practicing in San Francisco was obtained from the AAOS Website. A total of 86 current fellows, not including candidate and resident members, were compiled. The list was divided into AAOS Fellows of fewer than 20 years and AAOS Fellows of more than 20 years. An investigation was made regarding Internet and social media presence via search engines for both individual physicians and for websites for physician practices (solo or group versus hospital or university-based). Additionally, the presence of physician and practice accounts for Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter, and physician accounts for Instagram, YouTube, and Google+ was identified. Internet and social media presence was compared between these two groups and percentage of participation was evaluated. RESULTS 94% of all San Francisco AAOS Fellows have an active Internet website accessible to the general public and 41% of Fellows have online appointment availability. Despite Fellows in the under 20-year group and private practice not having significantly more online appointment availability than the over 20-year group and university/hospital-based setting, there was a clear trend in that direction. The under 20-year group participated in an average of 1.2 more social media sites (4.1 vs 2.9 P=0.02). There was no significant difference between private practice and university/hospital-based practice with regard to social media usage. Google+ was the most likely utilized social media website followed by LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. The under 20-year group utilized newer social media sites like Twitter and Instagram more frequently than the over 20-year group. CONCLUSIONS Internet and social media presence is clearly and important component of physician practice amongst San Francisco orthopedic surgeons. Private practice physicians and surgeons with fewer years in practice are more likely to utilize online appointment software.

Source Of Information

According to the dominant view, the quality of individual scientific papers can be evaluated by the standard of the journal in which they are published. This paper attempts to demonstrate the limits of this view in the field of economics. According to our main findings, a publication frequently serves as a signal of high professional standards rather than as a source of information; referees and editors frequently reject good papers and accept bad ones; citation indices only partially balance the distortions deriving from the selection process; there are essential “entry costs” to the publication process. Moreover, financial interests of publishers may contradict scientific interests. As long as leading economists do not give voice to their dissatisfaction, there is no hope for any reform of the selection process.

This article aims to explain maqâṣid al-Qur’ân according to M. Quraish Shihab and its application in interpreting verses related to the use of social media. The problem that will be answered in this article covers two main issues, namely how the perspective of maqâṣid al-Qur’ân according to M. Quraish Shihab and how it is applied in interpreting the verses of the use of social media. The method used is the thematic method, namely discussing verses based on themes. Fr om this study the authors concluded that according to M. Quraish Shihab there are six elements of a large group of universal goals of the al-Qur’ân, namely strengthening the faith, humans as caliphs, unifying books, law enforcement, callers to the ummah of wasathan, and mastering world civilization. The quality of information lies in the strength of the monotheistic dimension which is the highest peak of the Qur’anic maqâṣid. M. Quraish Shihab offers six diction which can be done by recipients of information in interacting on social media. Thus, it aims to usher in the knowledge and understanding of what is conveyed in carrying out human mission as caliph, enlightenment through oral and written, law enforcement, unifying mankind and the universe to the ummah of wasathan, and mastery of world civilization
