[starghadeer]

Hi all,

Just wanted to start up another forum for CHLA's Versant New Grad RN Program for the March 2013 cohort. Here's a link to CHLA's page: http://www.chla.org/site/c.ipINKTOAJsG/b.3579535/k.2A87/RN_Residency__Pediatrics_Nurse__RN_Versant.htm

The online app should only be open for a few more days apply now and GOOD LUCK!

The packet said oct 31 was the dre they'd start letting people know

Not yet! I am trying to tell myself to give them two weeks before I get antsy. But anytime I see an unfamiliar number on my phone, I must admit I freak out.

[babyrn88]

Oh, thanks @itsnowornever. I missed that.

Actually, the packet said that they would begin calls the week after the packet due date, and then if you haven't received a call by the 31st then you were likely not selected.

Super excited/nervous!! I'm a heme/onc, too!

If someone receives that MAGICAL call. ...let us know!!!!

[itsnowornever, BSN, RN]

Attached is an image from the information packet. Knew I wasn't insane. Interviews are end of October through november. If you aren't called by Oct 31st then you weren't selected.

[kristinebrn]

No, that is totally correct!! But on the website it states:

[h=2]Interview Process[/h]After you submit your packet to the Human Resources Department, it will be reviewed by the RN Residency committee. If you are selected for an interview, a Nurse Recruiter will contact you.

Interviews will be scheduled beginning the week after the application deadline.

So the interviews will begin being scheduled this week. Sorry if I was unclear!!

Thanks @kristinebrn! Except now I'm antsy again... haha. Are you all from the LA area or from other places? I am living in LA now but just moved here in September for my husband's graduate school program -- I went to school out of state.

[rast00957]

From Puerto Rico :)

[kristinebrn]

@babyrn88 I'm totally with you on the antsy thing. Every time me phone even moves my heart stops.

I'm in Norcal and went to school here. But every time I read something about this hospital, it sounds even better. I have every finger crossed for this job!! Hahahha

Does everyone have the following status? " Thank you for submitting your application to Children's Hospital Los Angeles. Our recruitment team is currently reviewing and processing your application. We will contact you should we wish to schedule an interview. Again, thank you for your time and interest in employment with our organization. Children's Hospital Los Angeles"

[kristinebrn]
