New grad program at VA palo alto?

by star08

Hello guys.. Is there anyone who turned in an application for the new grad program at VA? How is the application process so far? Did anyone get any interviews? I wasn't able to reach the deadline for the upcoming March program.. Does anyone have any information as to how the application process goes?

yeah...

You need to call them up. They don't post their new grad programs on their job bulletin website. It took me weeks to contact them. Here's the number: 650-493-5000 ext 64530. Yeah I've applied to their new grad program which starts in March. But I haven't heard from them since. We'll see. I don't know when their next new grad program starts, but you can call them. Just keep calling until someone picks up. I've left several messages but they never seem to call me back. Good luck!

hi bebetisha,

well, i called them today and they told me that they are conducting interviews at the moment. There were 200 applicants so I don't know if I even have an interview. But they told me that I should hear something from them by the end of this week or next week. I'll keep you guys updated.
