Hi everyone! I thought I would start a thread for CHOC Children's RN Residency that is starting in August 2020. I'm super excited to be applying to the NICU!

Fingers crossed for some good news in the coming months!

Specializes in CVICU/NICU.

Was this for the fellowship as well? Or just new grad?

Upthread someone said the fellowship got filled already

Specializes in Pediatric Bone Marrow Transplant.

I’m kinda bummed I didn’t get at least an interview because I have pediatric experience but I want to change specialities so I figured to apply for the fellowship program. I’m wondering if I should just apply to a regular PICU position or just wait until the next round for the fellowship program opens again. Anyone have any insight? LOL.

Just called HR for the PICU. She said they filled the positions ?

Is this for both residency and fellowship ?

Does anyone know if we get notified of rejection? Like an email or call? I have been waiting for a while and want to know if we actually get notified

Specializes in Step-Down ICU.

I’m in the same boat. Not sure if I should just apply to a regular PICU position or wait for next round of fellowship. I have step down ICU experience. Ugh this is so tough. PICU is my dream :-(((

Has anyone gotten an update yet for the new grad nicu position? My application has said "under consideration" for the longest time ?

I haven't heard anything and at this rate, I'm taking it as a no ?

Does anyone know what the status is in regards to the NICU new grad program? Have those positions been filled? I'm supposed to interview next week. I can also call tomorrow and ask HR.

just saw on a FB post that someone is scheduled for a nicu position interview... so theyre in that process right now

My application still says "Under Consideration" for NICU as well.

Hi! I also interviewed for the NICU new grad residency. Have you heard anything since interviewing, and do they ask for a reference check? Thank you!

No I haven't heard, they told me expect 2 weeks for a response at the latest. There was some question about getting my license transferred to CA in time though so I don't know if I'll hear from them. And no I haven't, gotten anything about letters of rec yet! The interview experience was really good though, I hope it was the same for you! They all seemed so nice!!

Officially got rejected from NICU. Honestly it was my reach hospital since NICU rarely hires new grads and I wasnt going to move to the area unless I was NICU. Good luck to everyone starting their new jobs, you'll be amazing nurses!
