  1. I was called yesterday for med/surg/tele and I start August 8th. Wow that's soon
  2. What have I done?!

    It took me a year to find a job and fortunately I just started working at UCI in MICU. I did everything you did but I've met some great unemployed new grads out there so the competition is fierce. Sometimes it's just in the timing. Sorry. Good Luck ...
  3. UCI MC New Grad August 2011

    Yes, I start orientation this Monday. I will be working in ICU-Medical. It was nice reading the blog so that I know what to expect. When someone said 6 months of didactic I was thinking that I was going to be in a classroom for 6 months before bei...
  4. UCI MC New Grad August 2011

    If you want to read it from day 1, read older posts first. I believe it starts with the interview in Feb 2011.
  5. UCI MC New Grad August 2011

    Good Luck to everyone. There's a great blog about a nurse's experience in the UCI new grad program. After reading the blog I am both excited and nervous.
  6. Finally Got A Job!!

    Sorry I quoted the wrong hospital. I meant to say Corona Regional Medical Center instead of Chino. I've applied at so many I get confused. But I do remember LDrnWNB from that thread (CRMC). LDrnWNB don't feel bad for turning down a position. It j...
  7. Finally Got A Job!!

    Well congratulations to you too. How does it feel to have to decline an offer? I am so happy. I don't know what to do with myself since I no longer have to search for a job. That took so much of my day. I did clean my garage today and watch netfl...
  8. Finally Got A Job!!

    LDrnWNB - I believe I applied for the new grad job at Chino right along with you. I didn't get that job. How about you? I remember you did get a panel interview. I finally got a job with UCI in ICU.
  9. Panel Interview at UCI Medical Center

    I don't know when I will start. I was told to wait for HR to call but I guess since they're hiring a lot more people I may have to wait until the group is formed. I asked the supervisor what I should be doing in the meantime to prepare and he said ...
  10. Panel Interview at UCI Medical Center

    Don't give up. I thought that I wasn't going to get it and I was pleasantly suprised. I had aready started looking outside the state. Also, I didn't have any ICU experience either. Also, today I noticed a new grad position (don't remember where) a...
  11. Panel Interview at UCI Medical Center

    I was told 4 for ICU during the interview.
  12. Panel Interview at UCI Medical Center

    I had an interview and accepted a position for Medical ICU. My interview was on the 15th and I accepted the position on the 22nd. I'm happy but I won't let myself get to carried away until I sign paperwork. :anbd:
  13. Finally Got A Job!!

    Yeah!!! I finally got a job as a RN after almost a year of looking. I graduated May 2010 and was beginning to look for positions outside of California. I am so happy. So yes it can be done. Please don't give up. Feel sad for a moment and then m...
  14. Corona Regional Medical Center

    I applied at Glendale and have not heard back from them. Thanks for calling and giving an update on Corona. Kinda bummed now because I have not received a call back for a second interview and my first interview was over a week ago. Oh well, I'll ...
  15. Corona Regional Medical Center

    Wow LDrnWNB. That would be perfect for you. I've always had to drive far for work so the drive doesn't really bother me. Can you let us know what the update is once you find out? Do you know how many people applied or had interviews. There are s...
