At least we have this forum to update eachother…better than waiting with no clue what is going on…this is such a good resourse. Makes this whole process more exciting!

Definitely! Its nice to kind of know whats going on...I was reading a blog from the cohort that started in September 2012 and the due date for the packets was March 26th someone said (which I believe is when I remember submitting mine last time also) and the first thread I saw of someone getting a call for an interview was like April 16th is so that's about 3 weeks....and its only been two weeks today since the packet deadline date...so there is still time :up:

So we are almost there!! Its actually probably a good sign that they take three weeks because that means they are taking the time to consider all the packets, so we all will get looked at.

I like that perspective, that they are taking time because they are going through the applications -- keeps me from going too crazy! I'm hoping that if I do get called to interview it is early in the process because my baby is due in mid-November. I would rather not go into labor during the interview if I am so fortunate as to get one. :)

Ah I hope your delivery goes good! But hey if you do go into labor in an interview your at a hospital already at least

I like to think we have a pretty good cross section of the applicant pool on this thread, different locations, different departments selected...still no one has heard anything? I have never ever been so hypervigilant for the sound of a phone ringing lol!

I just found out a friend of mine has 2 sisters working on the Hem/Onc unit. She is going to ask them later on, if they have heard anything about interview dates or calls going out. I should hear back by tomorrow morning but with a little luck, maybe we'll have our own answers by then :)

I picked Float 1st and CV 2nd btw.

kaylee.rn · Oct 18, 2012

My 1st choice CV Acute, and 2nd was 6 West (solid organ transplant, GI, Nephrology, Gen. Surg)
