UCH residency interviews?

jellocorp · May 01, 2009 05:41 PM

Hi everyone,

I just got an email saying I'm invited to interview at UCH for the Critical Care residency program. Anyone else? Does anyone know what sorts of things they ask and/or are looking for? I'm coming from out of state so I would appreciate any help you could give about where to stay in relation to the airport or downtown, and anything else I might need to know.

Thanks!

Hey Jellocorp,

I also got invited for an interview at UCH for the Critcal Care residency... I went for the interview, did you? I am waiting and waiting for them to give me a call about the job!
If you interviewed, have you heard back from them? I gave them a call yesterday and they told me they have not made any decisions as of yet.

I got a call from the HR woman today telling me that I didn't get the position. Boo, I really wanted it. I hope you have better luck

Nope, I didn't get the position either... I really thought I was going to get it.. the interview went so well, didn't think many could beat my educational background, not to be conceited or anything but wow. I guess the best of the best apply there! We are brilliant and we will get a job elsewhere (hopefully!!!). I just applied to about 10 more jobs to keep my mind distracted for the bad news!!!
Let me know how it ends up for you!

If you don't mind me asking: Where did you go to school? What kinds of experience do you have in health care?

I just graduated from the Drexel accelerated program; I have my previous degree in Chemistry and my master's is also in chem. I did my senior practice in the ICU and got a very good rec from my prof. I thought my interview went really well and everything so I was kind of surprised. I wonder who they did take??

I just graduated from the Columbia accelerated program, my previous degree was in Biology from University of Colorado. I was a medical assistant during my year between schools and I also did my senior practicum in an ICU... who did they take!?!? Craziness
