Oh, Wow, what an emotional roller coaster!!! So apparently, Pennsylvania is back on the list & I need to schedule my online interview. I am so surprised. I really lost hope after my last conversation with them. I couldn't believe they changed the states after I already interviewed. But I guess all that doesn't matter anymore, since PA is back on the list. So I'll have my online interview later this week, now. Wish me luck!!!

That's great! Good luck!

Did the online interview. My first 4 answers were definitely longer than the last 2. But I still think it went well. Its still just all a whirlwind because of the whole state approval thing. Anyway, does anyone know how many people have applied for this cohort?

No, I have no idea.

Hi all,

I have my phone interview tomorrow. I was supposed to have it a month ago but wasnt available so had to.keep pushing it off. I am really nervous.!! I graduated 4 years ago in Spanish and Biology. I spent two years in the peace corps after that and am now hoping to.become a nurse! Hoping my chances are good but I guess we will see. You all have a lot more experience than me. I have 1 year CNA experience but it was about 4 years ago :/although I just started working again at a cbrf a month ago.

What did you do in the peace corps? I bet some of that experience will help. Good luck on your interview!
