I'm really not sure, my interviewers were really nice. But some questions startled me and I think I started to babble. Arg... I don't know. I wonder how many interviewed with the unit... haha yes, praying for a good outcome.

Had my interview today, came out with no recollection of what and how I answered. Hoping for the best. Yeah, I agree that each applicant's info is forwarded to one hospital. Hmm, wish it was forwarded to all three choices increases my hope a bit tha...

I actually didn't get any contact from my first and second choice. I was wondering if anyone got calls/interview with more than one hospital? Well, tomorrow is the last day for interviews...So, the anxiety game continues... Good luck and keep me post...

Now that I think about it, I was so focused on Bellevue, cause that was my first choice, I forgot we were given the option to rank our top 3 hospitals of interest. eamjao: Aside from Bellevue, did other hospitals contact you? damitzKBEE: Thanks.

Hey, Nope, basically asked if I'm an applicant for the Lehman College RN Transition program and when I answered "yes" she just asked if I'm able to go in to an interview on Friday. And that was the whole phone call...

Yes, I received a call from Beth Israel today as well. I didn't have a phone interview but was told to go in this Friday. How was your phone interview if you don't mind me asking....

Hi, I applied to the program as well, but during their extension date (April 18). Aside from the 2 emails from Lehman College, I haven't heard from any hospitals. Hope to hear from Bellevue soon, since I did my externship there... Good luck!!!
Honestly its a great opportunity. Finding a job in the city is impossible unless you have some powerful connection, if anything move there for one yr for the experience. Beside I think a lot of people are relocation as long as they have a job offer s...

There is no nursing shortage, if only I have researched this before going into nursing. I have graduated and its been a yr and still unemployed. If nursing shortage mean having 200 applicants applying for 1 position than I guess there is a nursing sh...
I attended LIU, no personal statements required. Had to take a HESI entrance exam, which is super easy if you get and study from their recommended book. Getting in was easy but going through with the program is another story. Best of luck!
