  1. Texas Children's New Grad program

    Our summer GN cohort started on July 27th, so I'd say late July.
  2. Texas Children's New Grad program

    As you'd probably expect, the questions were behavioral based. I thought of about 5-8 good "stories" from nursing school/PCT work experiences and patient/family interactions that could be used in a variety of different types of questions. I think the...
  3. Texas Children's New Grad program

    I am (was) from out of state, so I did not have any clinicals at TCH or anywhere else in the medical center. About 2/3 of my new grad cohort did, the rest of us did not. I would imagine that it helps to have clinicals (especially to do your senior pr...
  4. Texas Children's New Grad program

    I really do. It's a very diverse unit and there is always so much to learn. Everyone is incredibly helpful and supportive. I can't believe I've been here for almost a year.
  5. Texas Children's New Grad program

    I'm not sure about antepartum, but I do know that some of the antepartum GNs were hoping to transfer to L&D after about a year or so. As for nicu, there were 8 of us in my cohort (summer 2015): 3 in nicu4 days, 3 in nicu4 nights, 2 in pavilion ni...

    In my cohort (July 2015) they did not. They did hire into antepartum, though.
  7. Relocating to Houston area after NCLEX

    I definitely understand your stress of trying to find that first new grad job in the amazing place that is the Texas Medical Center, especially as an out of state student with ZERO on-site clinicals. It is a big challenge, but it is possible! I am an...

    For everyone waiting to hear back from NICU, you may hear something today. I did and...I got the job! :)
  10. Texas Children's GN Residency 2015

    (To GN2015 about the acute care interview): It was not bad. The interviewers were very friendly and fun to talk with. The questions were, as we all expect, behavioral based. Get there early if you are not familiar with TCH and the medical center. Goo...
  11. Texas Children's GN Residency 2015

    I ended up having 3. My CVICU interview was canceled (apparently they selected all their GNs by the end of the Tuesday interviews). Disappointing, yes, but I am still excited and hopeful for any of the nicu, picu, or acute care positions.

    Yes. I also interviewed with acute care and nicu today. They're conducting the acute care interviews now through friday. You might call HR and ask the status of your application?
  13. Texas Children's GN Residency 2015

    Hi! I got a call yesterday from TCH (nurse recruiter/HR) to set up a time/date for interviews with the nurse managers in the CVICU and PICU. I'm equally excited and nervous! I was told that they will be calling over the next 2-ish weeks as they deter...
