I heard that interviews will start next week and I haven't seen a forum post about this cohort yet! Has anyone heard back to schedule interviews?

I read in the previous cohorts thread that they asked the same questions from the essay questions in the application?? not sure if that's changed but yeah I'm curious what even they can ask in only 15 mins haha

I thought it was more of a screening, and not about questions specific to the units we chose. I thought unit-specific questions would be until the 2nd interview.. but you could be right, I'm really not sure. 

hi! just had my first interview and wanted to share my experience if that helps anyone. I was interviewed by two people and they asked 3 questions from the essay questions. they said sometimes the interviewers aren't the ones who reviewed your specific application so it's a way to get to know you. they said to answer the questions as if they don't know anything about you. very chill and then they answered a few of my questions.

Pretty much how my interview went yesterday! I hope we make it to the next round! They told me that we'll find out next week. 

Just finished my screening interview as well! I was asked three questions from the essays as well. They were very friendly and put me at ease for sure. Good luck to everyone still interviewing and those of us patiently waiting for the next call.

Thank you all for your input! Good luck to all of us from here and on! 

did anyone happen to get the emails for the 2 interviewers, stephanie and kasie (I think ?)

I actually didn't get my interviewer's emails either. But I did some digging and it looks like their emails are the same format as HR (first initial and last name put [email protected]). I followed that format and it didn't bounce back. I think its worth a shot. 

Does anyone know when we start hearing whether we made it to the second round of interviews? ?

I think by the end of this week because I was told second round interviews begin from Aug 28 - Sep 7 and final offers will be on Sep 11 or so. 

Also just curious what's everyone's unit preferences? 

Mine are NICCU and 5 East ?

My unit preferences were ED and 4 East!

Does everyone have their RN license yet? I just graduated last week and still need to take my NCLEX.
