Houston Area New Grad Internship Applicants for Winter 2016

U.S.A. Texas

Published

Hello! There are a few threads floating around regarding applications to Houston GN/Nurse Residency positions. I just wanted to start one that discusses all residencies in Houston.

I have already applied for a Memorial Hermann and Ben Taub Nurse residency position. I have also applied to the CVICU, ER, and Women's Services positions for Houston Methodist, as well as an ER position at Texas Children's. I am considering if I still want to apply to St. Lukes. I have decided not to apply to HCA nurse intern positions because they pay beans for the first 12 weeks, and I don't want to work for a corporation that takes advantage of their employees in that way.

I have been invited to Ben Taub's information session, and have received an email from Memorial Hermann HR regarding a behavioral assessment to be an eligible candidate for employment.

I'm wondering where you all may have applied and if anyone has heard anything back from their applications yet?

Im on the same boat. I applied to both places. I completed the assessment from Memorial Hermann and just the info session for Ben Taub. :/

Okay cool. I'm hoping I get some calls back because I'd like to secure a position before I graduate or sit for the NCLEX! Only thing I don't like is that most of them start in February :/. Seems like a really long wait.

Same got that information session for Ben Taub, and match day for Memorial Hermann. For match day I have heard from past friends that when you do your interview its like a group interview. And be prepared to stay...all day. I'm just hoping there is another option if we can't go. Because I have class that day and am 99% sure I can't miss. :grumpy:
