Childrens National DC Residency Fall 2020

Nurses Job Hunt

Published

Hi everyone! I didn't see a thread about the Children's National New Grad residency for fall 2020 so I thought I'd start one! I applied to the NICU and the site says I'm "under review", whatever that means. Anyone else apply? ?

ugh mine still says under review ? when did yours change?

I'm not sure if you were asking me or not LOL but mine changed on April 16th! I really don't think it means anything so I wouldn't worry.

Do you guys know how they usually reach out?

hey guys! just wanted to update- I got a call from HR yesterday to schedule my interview (tomorrow at 11 am)! I'm lowkey freaking out LOL has anyone heard of specific questions they're asking? I'll report back regardless ? So yeah it sounds like they're finally starting to get back to people! Just fyi, the call I got was from "Gaithersburg, MD" so I didn't answer it the first time LOL. So if you get a call from there, it's probably them!

OMG!! Thats so exciting!! congratulations, 2 of my applications just turned to “eval in progress” so hopefully that meant we would get calls! Have answers for all basic interview questions and provide examples. Also practicing with someone would be a good idea. You got this!!

Mine changed to "eval in progress" today, too! No phone call for interview.

thank you! I'm super nervous but really excited, this is literally my dream job so fingers crossed LOL. I'm interviewing for the NICU!

Also side note- I talked to the NICU manager on Monday and she told me that they're getting in touch with people who are reaching out to them, so call HR or do whatever to get in touch so they know you're really interested!

Nice! My application status recently changed. I had reached out to HR inquiring about updates to my application (I applied a while ago) and within hours my status updated.

hey guys! just wanted to update again- I just had my interview, everyone was SO nice!! They asked all of the general questions like strengths, a moment that stood out to you in nursing school, what you do outside of work, a pet peeve that you have, etc. Nothing crazy so don't worry. They said that they can't give any formal offers until the hiring freeze is over but they also kind of said (without actually saying it LOL) that they would give you some kind of verbal confirmation that they wanted to hire you. But for all the NICU people, they said they fully intend on having the residency start September 21st and they're hiring around 15 people! Hope this helps- if anyone has questions let me know!

I just sent an email to the address they have under the residency program FAQ page so fingers crossed my status changes. I'm glad it went well @bhrn9 ! Was it a Zoom interview or a phone one?

It was on zoom! There were a couple educators and a manager. Originally 11 people were on the zoom invite and I was freaking out LOL but only 4 people actually interviewed me so it wasn't too bad! I've heard a lot of people's statuses are changing so I'm sure you guys will hear soon!
