The deadline is the last Friday in March. From now on I going to open my options because I am now aware competition is pretty fierce for jobs; for some reason I just assumed a job was going to just appear and float down in my hand like a feather, how naive. BTW I graduate this upcoming May. I am starting to get pretty freaked out about jobs now. And, have you all heard anything about Scott & White? Seton was my first choice, but I'm just making more room.

Hi katielady! I'm from California and I actually just had my interview today! It went great and you were right! The interview was nothing like I expected it to be. Thanks for the advice and help! I appreciate it! And as a side note, I'm crossing my fingers that I hear back from them sometime this week. S&W seems like an amazing place to work after touring the floors. The nurses are so nice and from what I can tell, they really support their new grads. Crossing my fingers for good news!

Thank you so much rnamelia!! I know that anxious feeling but you'll be fine! jbart15 Im glad if I was able to help you in any way, I am crossing my fingers for you and rnamelia!! Also, I feel the same about S&W seeming like an amazing place to work, especially as a new grad. The nurses I met were all so friendly, helpful, and truly seemed like they were enjoying their jobs. I left the hospital with a really good feeling because it seemed like a supportive environment to begin a career as a nurse. Off topic but have you taken the NCLEX? If not when are you planning on taking it?

Katielady, quick question... How long did it take for you to hear back from Scott & White with an offer?

Hi RNamelia! I am pretty sure you won't be hearing any answers soon until after next week because I know they are still doing interviews until the end of next week. Unless they have a lot of positions open and wants to fill them up ASAP. Cause I applied for med/surg and they called me the very next day for an interview that was suppose to be scheduled for next Thursday. So I assume it won't be until after that?

Hey Ktlam! Thanks for the information. I don't interview until later this week but I wanted to get a feel for the usual turn-around time on their decisions.... Ya know, see how long I'll be torturing myself over every aspect of the interview. :-) Are you doing a phone interview or an in person interview?

Hi rnamelia! I interviewed on a thursday, went back and shadowed a nurse the following monday and I received the offer on wednesday. I think it is probably different depending on the unit you applied to because Im sure they had more or less applications for certain floors. I applied for pediatrics.

I was suppose to interview in person next Thursday but declined the interview because I got offered a position with Seton. But I do wish you luck!!

Hi everyone!! I am also applying for an internship position at Scott and White. I haven't had my phone interview yet (I'm from out of state) but I was wondering if anyone knew any information as far as how they do scheduling there. Are they 12-hr shifts or 8-hr shifts? Starting pay? If anyone knows this information please let me know. Thank you very much! Any help is appreciated :up:

Hello NurseChristine6! I'm pretty sure they do 12 hour shifts. The nurse recruiter I spoke with said most new graduates will be on the night shift, at least initially... I don't know the answers to the rest of your questions yet (my interview is later this week.) If I find out the answers during my interview I'll be sure to pass the information along to you. I'm out of state also and doing a phone interview. What unit did you apply to?

rnamelia- I'm from New Jersey and I applied for the acute care/ med surg internship. I would've preferred one of the specialties but when I applied that is all they had open. How about you? I'm super nervous for this interview! I don't know what to expect lol. Keeping my fingers crossed for it to go well! Good luck to you as well, and if you get any info before I do please let me know hun. Thanks!

Specializes in Emergency.

If you are a GN pay is 18, if you are a RN, the pay is 20, until you get off of internship, then it goes to 24.90, which is base for Staff nurse.
