Hey so I currently work at CHLA and I just asked my managers about the 2nd round of interviews. Some units just got their list of names yesterday, so some people will not receive an email until Monday. My application also updated 11/18. my unit confirmed I got the second interview but I have not gotten an email yet. Hope this helps some people.

Thank you for sharing this! Does this mean it's safe to assume that if my app is also updated 11/18 then I have a second interview, I just didn't get sent the email yet? Still waiting to hear back from CV acute...

It seems like those who had their application update did get a second interview. They told me that some of the units/ recruiters are slow to send out invites to interview. So id give it until Monday to hear back.

Awesome, thanks so much for the encouraging info

Does anyone know around how many people each unit is planning on hiring? I'm sure it depends on the needs of each individual unit but just wondering!

They have an insta post up celebrating the graduation of a recent cohort. The group was "34 medsurg, 14 ICU, and 3 emergency"

don't know if it'll be the same for us but it's a rough idea at least 

Just heard from CV acute!!
