Haha! That’s awesome. Almost like they are stalking these boards. What day had they reached out to you for unit preferences?

January 25th, with the preferences and essay questions to be completed by noon on the 27th. And then crickets until today. I’m so excited, y’all. I figured my essay answers weren’t what they were looking for. It’s so nice to be wrong sometimes! ? ❤️

I hope everyone hears back soon!

That’s great! Congratulations! What units were they for if you don’t mind me asking?

Thank you! Not at all. ED Plano and PICU Dallas.

Has anyone heard back who applied to just critical care or just acute? Or have the only people who have been contacted so far are the ones who specified unit preferences a few weeks ago? Maybe that actually was the first round of screening.

Yeah, starting to think that if you only put one preference you are automatically out for whatever reason. ?

I haven’t heard anything. The status of my application says inactive. I’m not sure if that means I wasn’t selected to move forward or if it means the Job Search is inactive.

What do y’all’s say?


Mine says inactive as well but it is my understanding that that just means the job posting is no longer open.

Has anyone heard anything from gen peds or oncology?

I applied to both critical and acute care. I was asked last month to answer a few essay questions, and was told I would hear back this week but have heard nothing. I am assuming that if I don't hear anything tomorrow, then it is a no ?

I received the email about the situational questions and submitted them last month. I did ask a few questions and never received a response. I emailed again a few days later to ensure they received my situational questions and still never received a response. Anyone else have this issue?

Same! I have not heard anything since late January when I sent in my questions. I am starting to think that I didn't get any interviews.

Does anyone know the starting pay for their residency?

Did anyone interview last week and have heard anything?

I heard they would be making decisions Wednesday and notifying Thursday.

I interviewed last week so I’m not sure about the timeline of this weeks interviews.
