Wondering who else out there applied to the Palomar new grad program in San Diego? The application went up at 7 this morning, and I just checked at 11:45 AM and its already disappeared. Good luck to those applying. Lets comment and commiserate :)

Hi fellow New Grad RNs!! Looks like I may be seeing some of you on Tuesday :) Does anyone know if this will be a Group Interview? I know most nursing interviews are individual, but group ones aren't unheard of either. I was a little perplexed when the email said one hour with 7 other applicants. Wasn't sure if it'll be a group interview, whether we'll each separately be interviewed by several different interviewers at the same time, or if it'll take about an hour to interview all 8 people. If anybody knows anything, please let us know. Thanks!!

Palomar did rotating a rotating interview for the new grad/intern program last year (which was for current senior students). About 6 or so people rotated through stations with many different interviewers. Each station was about 2 min if I remember correctly. It may end up being like that.

Hey everyone! Looks like my snowballs will be melting right along with those of you still waiting on the magic email... This is getting to be like a sick joke or a bad dream that I'm still waiting to wake up from! I know the economy is bad but the "New Grad RN" clock is ticking and the options are running out lol. I just want to do what I killed myself for in college, you know??
My status hasn't changed yet. I've gone through two email accounts "just in case".
Anybody have a wet-vac for us melters? LOL (wry sense of humor coming out now).

So, is this just a screening interview do you think? I guess I better get a stack of resumes ready.

Good Luck Nurses who got an interview.
For those who didn't get emails for interview, did your status change on the Palomar website? Mine didn't.
Hope those that got interviewed today went well. I was a nervous wreck!!! My nerve got the best of me...ugh...i had a brain fart, to the question about Palomar!!!! I knew everything about Palomar....i feel like a loser today. Yep, i can now say i am no longer a virgin to a formal interview. If i got offer a position, it would be due to my personality, definitely, not due to my answers... BIG FAIL...
Anyhow, i though the interview process was a fun one and i like it. :)
