DFW Internships 2013

Does anyone know when Internships for June-August 2013 will be posted?
I know Baylor and Parkland is sometime in February.. What about Medical City, Presby, Methodist hospitals?

Thanks!

I applied for a September internship at UT Southwestern several years ago and the application period took place during early June.

In general, the application period is two to three months before the start of the internship. So if you're looking for June to August internships, apply between March and May. Good luck to you.

Apply between March and May?? Baylor's programs ends 2/15, are you intentionally trying to sabotage people?

Perhaps if you don't have an accurate, confirmed answer it may be best to not respond?

Nope, I'm not looking to sabotage anyone's chances of success at landing new grad internships. I have seven years of nursing experience (four years as an LVN and three years as an RN). Therefore, I'm not competing with any of the jobless new grads out there. I have a job, stability, good income, and success. I have been continuously employed in nursing since I have had my license.

I was not specifically referring to Baylor's program when I suggested to apply between March and May. Perhaps you should not become so defensive or paranoid when you come across a reply that rubs you the wrong way.

In the past two years since I've joined this website, you paint the gloomiest picture for nursing jobs in DFW.

I don't recall you ever having anything postive to say.

But beyond that, specific to this thread, it would have been best for you to not comment. You don't have the facts necessary to respond and as a result gave an inaccurate response. The rub is, your experience in the field isn't translating to you having knowledge on the topic of "DFW Internships 2013".

Sometimes the truth hurts, which is why many people gravitate toward 'yes'-people, cheerleaders and Pollyannas who paint unrealistic pictures and tell others exactly what they want to hear. The truth is that, although new grads in the DFW area are getting jobs, the local job market is horrid. Each job opening is receiving several hundred applications. There are not enough new grad openings for every new nurse who wants a job, plain and simple.

People cannot seem to handle the truth and would rather hear, "There's a big nursing shortage! There's tons of jobs out there! You can get hired anywhere!"
I feel I've made plenty of positive posts over the 8 years that I've been posting here, but I'm not one to candy-coat anything. However, you are respectfully entitled to your opinion on that matter.
I mentioned my previous work experience only because, in a previous post, you implied that I was purposely trying to sabotage peoples' chances at landing new grad spots. I was not pusposely attempting to sabotage anyone's chances at anything because I am not competing with the new grads.

You know what? You're right. I'm wrong. Whoop-de-do and Hallelujah. I did not have the facts to respond to queries regarding Baylor's timeframe for accepting applications. However, please be more attentive to the dates that these discussions are started. This discussion was originally not about Baylor, and it was started one month ago before Baylor's application period had even opened. I was giving a general time frame that had nothing specifically to do with the Baylor health system.

I wish you the best of luck with you future endeavors. And, as always, if you see a post that rubs you the wrong way or incites feelings of angst, it might be best for you to ignore it. We actually have an 'ignore' function that you can feel free to access. But keep this in mind: I am not one to shrivel up and back down. If you want positivity, you need to be more positive and look in the mirror.
