When I saw that Torrence Memorial had closed their applications to their New Grad program starting in March 2011 I realized we needed a new grad 2011 thread! The 2010 thread was a great place to ask questions and get answers about upcoming new grad opportunities. So let's make this thread the same. :)
First off, When did you graduate?
2011 New Grad Opportunities in California. Anyone waiting on hearing back after applying?

January 31, 2011
April 11, 2011
July 11, 2011
August 29, 2011
October 17, 2011
Dameron Hospital has a Versant Residency New Grad Program
But it says applications process TBA
Any old new grads out there? How long have you been looking for a job?
I got the same call and picked 2 very different units so we are not competing for the same jobs - no worries :) but does this mean anything? I have yet to hear from the dept. managers. Did you get an interview?
I just read a little further back in this post and AZWildcatRN it looks like you and I are applying for the same spots (fingers crossed we both get them!) Did you apply to the Mother/Baby new grad position at St. Joseph too? Have you heard anything from either one about an interview?

I did apply for the Mother/Baby new grad position at St. Joseph but I did not get the position. I contacted the nurse manager for that unit and she informed me that they were going to interview internal employees first and that if they did not select anyone from that pool then they would move to external applicants. I received a rejection email last week so I am assuming that they selected an internal applicant. I spoke to the nurse recruiter at Fountain Valley a couple days ago regarding my unit choices so maybe it may take a few days for the nurse manager to review the resumes and call for interviews.
Thanks AZWildcatRN, I haven't received an email, but I haven't heard anything either regarding the St. Joe's position Lets hope we get called for Fountain Valley. Keep hope alive!

Well if you didnt receive an email, hopefully your still in the running. I am praying that I get a phone call from Fountain Valley, my passion is to work in this specialty and I would love to work on either L&D or Postpartum. Keep me posted if you receive any phone calls or emails and I will do the same. :)
I just emailed the manager at St. Joe so I'm curious to see what she says. I also am totally focused on postpartum and L&D. Someday I hope to be a CNM and IBCLC (I might do this in the fall if no RN jobs work out). I will definitely keep you posted and thanks for doing the same.

We are totally singing the same song! I want to be a CNM also! I actually wanted to work as an RN for about 2 years before going back to school but because I still dont have a job Im not sure what my plans are right now.
I applied to IMU, PCU which are the ones I have experience in through internships/externships and other hospital experience, and I also applied to the birth center even though my experience there is limited. All I have my heart set on it trying to get a job at UCSD.
Lets hope we get called for Fountain Valley. Keep hope alive!
