Good luck to everyone!

Hi all! I just had a phone interview yesterday for the oncology unit at Emory Midtown and was asked to be a candidate for the program! Yay! I live and Tennessee and I guess will be relocating in March. If anyone is looking for a roommate or has any apartment suggestions please let me know. Good luck to all!

Also heads up to anyone who gets an interview. Mine were all situational questions (tell me a time you delegated a task, when was a time you were a leader, tell me of a time you used problem solving, etc)

Hey Ambervie!

My best friend just got an RN job at Northside in oncology and is moving up there in a few weeks I know she is looking for a roommate (I was between Wake Forest and Emory but got offered Wake Forest a couple months ago) so I won't be moving to ATL. Maybe you could get in touch with her! I am not sure how this works or if I can send you a private message?

Natasha :)

Hey Natasha! That sounds great! I can give you my email cause I'm not sure if you can send messages privately or anything and I will try and keep it touch that way. It's [email protected] Thanks! ?

Hey this is Natasha's friend! haha I just sent you an email from [email protected] I am actually up here in ATL this week (I'm from Florida) looking for places. Im moving here the end of the month and starting my oncology internship at Northside Hospital in a Feb. A nice place here can get pretty expensive, so planning on signing a two bedroom in hopes to find a roommate. Love to know if you interested! I linked some contacts to my email so feel free to give me a text/call :)

I finally received the email about forwarding to my resume to the hiring managers today. Is there typically a phone screen with HR after this or do the unit managers make phone calls for interviews? Also, about how long did it take to receive a call after getting this email for most?

[mangohead]

I had a phone interview and "offer" followed by papers from the recruiter for background checks, etc. How long was it before you received the official papers?

I also received an email today about having info passed on to the hiring department.

[mangohead]

Have you received a formal offer yet? I had a great

interview but it is not uncommon for

them to do background checks on several

applicants.

[smo153]

mangohead are you from out of state? I was wondering if they do phone interviews for everyone or just if you do not live in GA.

smo153: It is my understanding they do a "phone screen" for everyone and decide from there whether or not to send you on to a nurse manager for an in person interview. I talked on the phone with a recruiter and then actually met a nurse manager for an interview after the recruiter recommended me to them. After that interview you meet the nurse residency recruiter for a follow up interview but for me that was done after I already had a job offer from the manager.

I have a verbal offer but have not seen any additional paperwork since I filled out the background check and references form back in December.

abiscuit: I was wondering if you have heard anything else from emory? I too have had a verbal offer from the nurse manager and Darrell. I have done the background check and references. And haven't heard anything since...
