Palomar RN New Grad Program

U.S.A. California

Published

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 :)

For those of you who were called today and offered the position, what does your job status on pph.org say?

I hope I get a call soon too :( Congrats to those who did!!

I'm sure if you got an email, you are in! Basically the job offer is contingent on the background check, references, physical, and drug test. HR confirmed with me that there are 37 new residents! They are working really hard to get everyone's paperwork in order so it is a slow process. Don't be discouraged! My status on PPH changed to a generic status, but I don't think that really matters anymore.

For the people who have received official offers, did u get the department of your preference?

Heard they were not going to assign a department until after the 10 week training....BTW still waiting for the call but heard that from someone who did receive the call this morning :)

Yeah, I know of someone else who received a call today too! Nice to see that they are working on the weekends as well! Slowly, but surely...we will all get our phone call! I can't wait to meet all of you! We have to wear something in common to identify ourselves....hmm :rolleyes:

I did not get my preference, but I am more than happy to work at the department they placed me in. I know what specialty area, but not what specific department. =)

What specialty area did you end up getting????

I just got a call! Wasn't given a department though...I can't wait! :D

When they called me yesterday, she said they will decide on specific departments later on in training. So excited for us all! Counting down the days!

Yay, I got my call and email today too! They have not specified who will be in what department yet. They will communicate that with you during your training. I'm not certain, but the way it was described was like if you requested Med-Surg during your interview, you may be working with a variety of Med-Surg settings during your training (ie. general M/S, M/S Oncology, and Progressive care units). After 3 months they will do a performance evaluation and if the reviews are positive, they may offer a permanent position in the unit they feel you will work best in.

Specializes in Acute Pulmonary, Intermediate Care.

I got the call today as well! Such a joy and relief. I can't wait until everyone gets their call and welcome letter as well. My conversation regarding unit/facility placement was the same as Metohypr4U and VWgirl! Some of us are slated for PMC and some for Pomerado. At this point we will all receive the same orientation to start, then by the end of the 10th week, we should have a better idea where the needs are, and where we fit, etc...

I'm feeling very blessed and grateful to have been selected. Not to mention my birthday is Thursday, and I couldn't have chosen a better gift! I'm most definitely on top of the world right now!
