CHOP externship 2015

Published

Hello! I couldn't find any other thread talking about CHOP's externship this year. I was wondering if anyone else on here has an interview coming up or if anyone has recently gone through this process and externship? My interview is Friday the 13th and I couldn't be more nervous!

Hey! I also applied to the CHOP externship!! I was wondering if you've heard anything or gotten an email since your interview? And what unit did you interview for?

Hi! I haven't heard anything yet since the interview! I'm still waiting for the reference step to be emailed to complete that. I interviewed on the 4west seashore house. What about you?! Waiting over a month to find out is so hard!

Nice!! That's a great unit. A few of my friends had their clinical rotation there! I interviewed for 8 South! Okay same, I haven't had the reference step emailed to me either yet. I hope we'll find out soon!

I hope we find out soon too!! Do you know anyone else who interviewed there? I'm from the area but I don't go to school here so I'm nervous that not having any clinical's at CHOP is a big disadvantage for me. I guess I just have to hope for the best! 50/150 are terrifying odds!

I just know other people who interviewed from my school! Don't worry, that's definitely not a disadvantage! I wouldn't worry too much about it. Yeah, the odds aren't great but we should be proud that we even made it to the interview! I thought my interview went really well but I was told that only two people were going to be hired on the floor I interviewed for which makes me so nervous!

I am extremely grateful to even have been selected for an interview! Definitely something we should be proud of! 4west seashore was the same , 2 externs. I thought my interview went fairly well.. I get so nervous and speak so fast! I hope we find out earlier than March 27.

Thanks for responding! Glad to know I'm not alone. Just getting a little worried cause I was under the impression that we would know if we got the externship the 27th, but maybe they meant the reference email.

Good luck to all!

I'm going to be a CHOA (Atlanta).
