Hey y’all!
Since the application opened for the nurse residency program at CHOA, I decided to start a thread ? I’m so nervous but I have officially submitted my application. Best of luck y’all. Let the games begin!

That may not be it then. It could be that I have no experience other than clinicals. I’ve applied for tech positions everywhere for the past couple of years. No luck

Sorry to hear that. CHOA is very selective from what I heard and they love to hire internally or with references from current employees. If you know someone working there it could definitely boost your chances the next residency round or if you wanna work as a tech before then. Good luck

I'm sorry to hear that ?
Unfortunately now CHOA will only hire BSN due to their recent magnet status. If you see ADN prepared nurses working there it is because they were grandfathered in since they worked there prior to the hospital obtaining magnet status. Hope this helps!
Just wanted to give a little update from my school. Two of my fellow nursing classmates were CHOA externs and they accepted jobs at the beginning of January in the PICU. Another girl got Calls for an interview with PICU and another one with the ED on 1/22 (from what I know, both were external applicants). I applied in mid December and haven’t heard anything yet. Application is still under review. I applied to NICU.

I also applied externally but haven't heard anything back yet! ? When did you guys who just did digital interviews hear back originally?! And when did you apply?!
