CHLA Versant RN Residency September 2020 Cohort

Updated:   Published

Hi! I know the application for CHLA's RN Residency Program doesn't come out until March 2nd, 2020, but I just wanted to get a heads start!

I'm planning on applying for their NICCU and was curious if anyone knew what the prescreen interview would consist of?

Just got an email about my interview for NICCU still taking place but informing that “the Versant RN Residency Program due to the CoVid-19 will be postponed to start not until January 11, 2021.”

“Since the team wants you to have the best experience and training they felt it would be better to postpone than to cancel.”

Just got an email that I have a virtual interview for the PICU later this month! With the start date pushing to January, I'm hoping this will help everyone involved to be able to take NCLEX and secure their license in time. With all the delays due to Covid, September may have been a bit tight for everyone to get their testing date.

Hi guys! I received my invitation for a PICU interview as well and I couldn't be more excited! As far as the email goes, I am under the impression that the virtual interview could be it. A NICCU applicant had mentioned previously that they have a video interview then an in person one, but the email I received did not hint at an in person interview.

The way that my email for NICCU was worded I assumed both were online/virtual but when I received the call to schedule a time, she informed me the second would be in person!
