California's 2010 New Grad RN Program

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..

^I completely agree with you. It's discouraging to "old" new grads. but to those who qualify, good luck.

Does anybody know if Stanford Hospital and LPCH have the same human resources department? Or is the hiring/selection process totally seperate?

I did my preliminary phone interview with Stanford and interviewer said she saw I also applied to LPCH and asked which facility I prefer. I hope my response doesn't take me out of the running for the other.

Also, my status on their website now says "unknown." Anybody else have a status change?

Apparently, the departments are connected. Same thing happened with me and my status is also "unknown" now also.

Bummer, I hope saying I prefer Stanford doesn't take me out of the running for LPCH.

I have a feeling it is one or the other. She said how many jobs each had, but I don't remember. Did they tell you?

I actually just called to ask HR. Apparently, the responses to the phone interview will go to both facilities. From there it is up to the recruiters to see if they want to bring you in. She said even though I stated a preference for Stanford, it does not take me out of the running for LPCH. I would love a shot at a maternity nursing position there.

She said in about a week or so we should see a status change to "not selected" or "in review" but from that point on it may take a few weeks to get panel interviews set up. I was told there are 10 spots at Stanford. I am not sure how many are at LPCH.

Wow, thanks for all the info. I guess it pays to ask, rather than just sit and wait and hope and wonder!

Specializes in Emergency, Administration.

There are "less than 30" positions total, so if there are 10 at Stanford then there are 20 or fewer at LPCH :nurse:

My status changed to, "Application in review" after my phone interview.
