I did the registration process yesterday at the HR Department. By the way, is there anyone here who did the same procedure and was already scheduled for the exam, interview, etc.? I really hope to be notified soon but the computer registration bothers me since there isn't really much to screen from the data an applicant inputs in their file.

Hi. I did also that kind pf application procedure last 3rd week of January but unfortunately until now I haven't receive any contacts from the HR. While I'm typing my information in the computer, an HR personnel was talking to an applicant that has to have an interview. After their conversation, I notice that this applicant had passed his requirements in first week of January this year.

after the HR dept interviews you, someone from NSO will interview you also. then you will train for a month. then it's back to the waiting game. as i said, there was no waiting back in 2006, you work right after you train. on the last day of your training, they make you sign a contract. but now, after training, some have to wait for 6 months or more. it's a sad situation really. you have to be patient.

to all those waiting for a call from the medical city, i suggest while waiting, apply in a hospital near you, if you live in the province, apply in a tertiary hospital, you will get VALUABLE experience there. for the simple reason, the nurses do everything. before i entered medical city , i worked for 6 months in a hospital in the province, and i learned all the basics there. i did not have a hard time adjusting at all. in TMC they won't make you insert NGT's or foley caths or do ABG's. the interns do that. when there's a code, a code team arrives. in the province, it's just you, the resident and the head nurse. so you learn more. trust me. i have assisted in more codes in the province compared to here.

Do they still accept resume's from applicants? i kinda felt disheartened because of the situation of nurses today.. I'm trying to find my luck to many hospitals where I could work as volunteer nurse maybe..Thanks...

Hi everyone! tomorrow is my schedule for second interview at TMC.

Can anyone give me pointers as to what i should expect?

It's my first "second interview" and i hope i could be given some guidance.

Unlike a previous post, the HR staff who interviewed me did not mention

a particular vacancy position (e.g. ancillary, wellness, etc.)

so I'm pretty much clueless about what to expect for tomorrow.

I hope someone could help me.

I'm really glad i stumbled upon this forum,

I've been preparing (studying) for it despite zero idea of what will happen.

Thank you for taking time to read.

And I hope anyone could offer their 2cents.

With all gratefulness, -Julie Anne I., RN batch 2008

hi julieane! it depends on who will interview you. one of the clinical instructors will be interviewing you. mostly med surgical questions. they will choose a disease, you explain the patho physio - labs to looks for, meds to give. nursing interventions in giving these meds. and of course they will also ask questions that will give them an idea of how dedicated you are. some new nurses go AWOL after just one week. or 2 weeks. so they want to make sure you've got it in you. good luck! but i think im too late - i saw about 6 nurses outside the NSO waiting to be interviewed. were you one of them?
