I sent my unofficial transcripts and recommendation letters over one week ago. I did not have a phone interview. Please see previous posts before asking questions :) Good luck all

Hi airwolfgunner,

Did she happen to mention which dept. you would be interviewing for? Still waiting and hoping for that phone call.

Congrats to those that got interviews! Would you mind sharing some of the questions you were asked?

I don't think anyone got to interview in front of the actual UD or NM yet, just that they got called to schedule themselves for an interview. Good luck everyone!!

Thanks Sallyp911! Its been a week since I sent in my letters of rec and transcripts and I have not gotten a phone call yet.

hello everyone,

do you know what new grad starting pay is? just curious what its like in cali...i'm from chicago

[Pinky687]

There is information regarding salary on the program's FAQ page...It says starting is $40.97 plus differentials, pretty good :)

WOW. that's $15 more than what's offered here.

I haven't heard myself for an interview and it's only from what my girlfriend has found out.

My friend thinks that the interviews are starting tomorrow and goes to next Wednesday. A possible single interview with the UD and NM and if they like you, sign on the dotted line.

UC Davis also has a very generous benefits package, great start pay scale and cost of living is very reasonable, nothing like in the Bay Area or LA, so it's a total win-win situation.

With the shift differentials, it goes up to $43-44, nice.

Good luck to everyone!

I just called the nursing recruitment dept to get a status update on submitted documents (mine were due 12/1). She said they are in the middle of all the paperwork and candidates should be expecting calls from now till a few more weeks.

I was starting to lose hope because so many people have already received phone calls. Hope this is some comfort to anyone equally anxious as I am about this!

[robinson1211]

Thank you so much for that update!! I was really starting to lose hope. Now I can hope for at least a few more weeks that I will get a call:yeah:
