CHOC RN Residency/Fellowship Feb 2020

Hi fellow nurses! I am Sherry and I applied to the CHOC fellowship for multi specialty area recently & was just wondering if anyone else has applied for it too?

i graduated in May 2017 so technically I’m not considered a new grad, but I’ve never actually worked in an acute care as a RN, only outpatient. so technically I’m a stale new grad? it’s super difficult to make it in the hospital w/o acute care experience, so I decided to apply to the fellowship! 
 

wondering if anyone is on the same boat?

Hey! I'm in a similar situation. Like, literally! Graduated at the same time and I've worked outpatient only, though I am a PACU nurse so I have critical care experience but no acute care-- go figure!! Don't consider yourself a new grad though-- you do have experience, just different experience! I talked to someone in HR and she did say that in our circumstances, fellowship is the way to go. I went for broke and applied for the CVICU.

Omg glad to find someone in the same boat as me! Hopefully we get in together!

Hi! Good luck with the fellowship! Sounds like you'll both bring great experience. I applied for the residency. Graduated in February, licensed in March, been waiting and hoping for a peds position! (Or I'll be applying as a fellow in the future like you guys. )

Figured other resident applicants would reply here and I think we're all together (or at least the cohorts run concurrent.)  

Hi all! I'm a new grad applying for the residency - does everyone's status say "under consideration" ?

Thanks in advance!

Yep, still "under consideration"!

Hi everyone!

I applied to the fellowship in the NICU. I have about 8 months of acute care experience and am wanting to land a peds job! Im still "under consideration" too. Lets hope we hear back very soon for interviews. Good luck!
