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!

Thanks so much and I had put Float 1st and CV 2nd. They said this interview is a manager panel and that the next round would be unit specific.

Looking forward to seeing more posts about calls received from everyone here :-)

OMG! Just stepped away from my fone for a second and they called, but didnt leave a message! I googled the # and sure enough it was CHLA!! I applied for CV also. I just called back and had to leave a message because they did not answer!! I am freaking! Why would they call and not leave a message?! Was this the right move to call back and leave a message?

I have no prior work experience in any health related capacity, my last job was as a middle school Math & Science teacher. I graduated with my Associates degree in Nursing in June 2012. I started my RN-BSN in August 2012 and should have it complete by Aug 2013 if class availabilty this summer cooperates ;)

Stay positive everyone, they have a lot of calls to make and I bet by day's end on Friday, we have a lot of happy recipients posting here. Crossing my fingers for everyone here!

Congrats to those who have been called :) Just out of curiosity, did they offer a phone interview for the first round? I live in Indiana and am currently work nights as an RN in the NICU, and while I'm certainly willing to do whatever it takes to get into this program, not having to book a last minute flight would be a lovely bonus.

My first choice was hem/onc, second was NICU.

Is everyone a new grad/early 20s? Nursing is my second degree, so I'm mid-20s, but just graduated in August :)
