U.S.A. California

Published

2010 is fast approaching so I think there must be a new thread for 2010 new grad program. I hope the moderators will allow me to post this new thread. I'm currently working at Monrovia Memorial Hospital which is 40 miles away from our apt. We live here in Playa del Rey, near the LAX and unfortunately I don't drive yet. I'm looking for any hospitals that offers new grad program for next year. I'm not even sure if I'm still qualified for a new grad program because it will be my 8th month this Jan. working at Monrovia Memorial. Anyone could share any info..Thanks..

The orientation period can be adjust for each individual and may be extended or shortened depending on performance.

The optimal time for a student nurse to apply to an RN I position is no greater than two months prior to graduation.

Once an applicant applies online, a recruiter will review the application to ensure that the applicant meets the minimum qualifications. If the minimum requirements are met the recruiter will forward the application to the hiring manager or supervisor.

i just spent an hour filling out this application only to get the following message:

"We're sorry. The position you are attempting to submit your resume to is no longer open."

sigh...

i keep hearing "call us back in 2012" and "pay your dues for 2 years in long term care, then we'll be really interested in talking to you"

this is frustrating, but i know we will all get jobs eventually.

Has anyone heard back from UCSF's Acute Care Training program that we applied to in May? Also, has anyone heard back from SF VA new grad program? I heard they have been calling for references.

And thank you to Tammy for all your detailed posts on new grad programs.

The nurse recruiter told me that if you don't hear from UCSF by the end of June you were not selected to interview. I do know they started interviewing the second week of June. I have not heard from them yet. Still crossing my fingers.
