Hi nurses! I haven't seen a thread for CHOA's summer 2018 residency program, so I figured I'd try to get one going. I recently applied and completed a digital interview. It'd be great to see how everyone else is progressing! Please post any questions or updates you have!! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jan 30, 2018 by ckm1 I just sent in my application for CHOA summer residency! How was the digital interview? Did they ask a lot of questions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jan 30, 2018 by kac97 Hey! I applied the week applications opened and got a digital interview really shortly after. Still waiting to hear back after that but the digital interview wasn't bad, pretty typical questions and very similar to what I had seen on a thread for the program on here from a few years ago!

Jan 31, 2018 by ckm1 That's so exciting! Congrats! were the questions mainly about you and your personal opinions? How many were there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jan 31, 2018 by KDHrn2md Like kac97 said the questions were super similar to the ones listed in the previous CHOA Residency thread from a few years ago. There are 10 questions based on your opinions, clinical experience, future plans, etc. I'd never done anything like that, so I hope my personality came across in the interview. Based on the previous thread, I'm not expecting to hear anything back until March. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Based on the previous thread, I'm not expecting to hear anything back until March. I had never done anything like that either, it was so weird just talking back to yourself and not having someone else's energy to go off of! I think overall mine went okay, but I'm the worst with waiting and am hoping we might hear back sooner this year since it seems like the app went up earlier.

Jan 31, 2018 by ckm1 Yeah I did my digital interview this morning! Not sure how it went, a few of the questions threw me off but hopefully it was okay! I was just nervous more than anything I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jan 31, 2018 by mwalker18 Hi! My name is Monica I'm from PA. I applied in January like the first week, got a digital interview the day after and haven't heard anything. I saw on some threads people heard back around March about formal interviews Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feb 1, 2018 by KDHrn2md I'm from PA too! It's great to see other new nurses looking to relocate! And yes, I'm in the same boat. I saw that people didn't hear anything back until March as well. So, I guess it's just a waiting game at this point! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feb 1, 2018 by almostnurse2018 Hey! Aside from a resume/cover letter, are we supposed to attach letters of recommendation or any other supporting document to the application? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
