I found that the sleep deprivation and insane workload of recruitment as a VPM was great preparation for residency. When I hit intern year, I already knew that I could go for two solid weeks with practically no sleep and remain ruthlessly efficient. The only difference is that when you're the intern on call and have twelve admissions overnight, you don't have to do them with perfect hair and makeup!
