Hi! I just joined Allnurses and am a graduate nurse looking for a job in the Atlanta area as well. I went to the Open house at DeKalb on June 12 for nurses interested in L&D & Mother/Baby. So exciting you got a call back for another interview! I did too :) and I was just wondering how did your second interview go? Was it similar to the first panel at the open house? Thanks!

No. The second interview I was interviewed alone by the manager and charge nurse for unit 4400. She told me they were hiring 2 new grads. I think the interview went well. We shall see. What about you?

I'm glad it went well! :) I think mine did too! I didn't ask how many they were taking though but on the day of the open house I heard 4. That could be between L&D and mother/baby, I am not sure. I wish I would've asked!! For the interview it was myself and a panel of 6, the L&D/antepartum nurse manager, the clinical manager I believe she said, 2 other coordinators for day and night shifts as well as 2 RNs that currently work in L&D. They didn't say how long before they made a decision, but at the open house is did ask and they said a couple weeks.

Yeah I struggle with the waiting game myself! I have applied to some other residencies but I really feel like this is The One.. So for the next few days I am just praying and waiting. How about you?

When did they say the residency for women services would begin?

July 21st! How about med/surg?

July 1st. I found that pretty odd because that is next week. How would that give them time to get all background checks and drug screens etc done in time. Maybe they mixed the dates up who know!

HR said they would be following up soon. They are still receiving final decisions from managers.
