Any Montefiore RN employees here?

[Charlie92]

I am a new nurse with no experience. I had an interview with montefiore on Feb 6. Now I am anxiously waiting to hear back. The NM said I will hear back from HR if I am hired, but this wait is killing me. Especially since my parents are pressuring me to take a temporary job (at a psychiatric hospital) that I do not really want because its not going to provide me with med surgical skills that I need for my future goals. So here are my questions: How long is the wait to hear back from Montefiore and should I contact the NM and ask about a time frame? Also if I take this job and Montefiore contacts me to offer me the job what should I do? Because my first instinct will be to take it and leave this place immediately even if Ive only been working there for 2 weeks. Dilemmas. Please respond as soon as you are able, you can also contact me on my email [email protected]

Did you all go through the website or did you go to the open house???

[estrellaCR, BSN, RN]

they call you after applying online. There is no open house. I app to Montefiore two years ago before being hired at a city hospital and it was all through applying online. The only open houses I am aware of are those held for experienced RNs by Mount Sinai, NYP, and others. These you sent your resume to the posting and if you meet the requirements...they give you the time and place of the open house. Also NYP has open houses for new grad but thats all done by applying online and if you make the cut they invite you to open house...they dont want thousands of people showing up.
