How to ace residency interviews?

With most residency interviews shifting to Zoom, applicants (especially IMG applicants) must receive some training in conducting compelling interviews. Although you could be a natural and have a memorable interview without training, that would be a considerable tall order. An easy tip is to read up about the program and drop subtle hints on how your lifestyle and career choices match those of the program, while also asking genuine questions to showcase your interests. However, consider this scenario: for 10 spots, programs interview at least 10 times the number of spots, approximating 100 interviews. Although most training directors take detailed notes, this equates to a minimum of 5 to 8 daily interviews. It is relatively easy to be a blip and not have anyone recall that you interviewed with the program. So, how do you become memorable enough to occupy a spot on the ranklist?
