   Thanks TLS. I recently just graduated, but the waiting game is definitely the most difficult part! You'll get one soon! UCSD opened a while ago, try looking there! :)

   Interview went well! Such a beautiful hospital, and both the manager and supervisor are so nice. Do you know exactly how many they are interviewing? I asked and they are only hiring 4, so its a slim chance for all of us! Fingers crossed.

   I am from Southern California, but a bit north from UC Irvine. My interview is on Monday at 4:30. I guess no one wants to shed light about their UCI interview experiences so I wish us all three some luck!! When are your interviews?

   hi patteRN, I also applied to the SICU and have an interview within the next few weeks. I've had several interviews but this will be my first large panel interview and don't know what kind of questions to expect. I'm getting nervous!

    Haha, I accidently went and emailed her too before I read this thread. Whoops. Well, I like willowloves post the best. :/ I'll let you all know what she replies back to me, but I'm guessing it will be the same

    Has anyone actually talked to R.L. (Nurse recruiter) about this whole thing. It seems weird that we are all hearing different things and I'm guessing its just a miss communication between HR. But with that being said, I am also losing hope :/

    My phone interview was also pretty short, but I'm thinking everyone's was... You can't elaborate too much on only 3 questions, and the person interviewing us wasn't even a nurse, so its just supposed to be short and sweet. The interviewer told me tha...

    Yes, I did ask this at the open house. You are committed as a new grad the first 4 months of training. After that 4 months, you sign another agreement that will keep you at the hospital for another 18-20 months. At least that is what I understood her...
