Grady RN Residency - Summer 2020

Published

Hi everyone! Is anyone else in the process of applying to Grady Memorial’s RN residency program that’s set to start this August?

I may be impatient (?!) but I applied a little over a week ago and have yet to hear back.

Has anyone heard anything back? Or for anyone who went through the process for Winter 2020, how long did it take you to hear back?

Yes mine was situation-based as well ? The questions were exactly as I was expecting, but I was very fortunate to have an interviewer who put me at absolute ease.

Agreed, it was situational. My interviewer was very gracious and easy-going. I still think I rambled like an idiot but I hope they were able to look past that LOL.

Just remember that you are your own biggest critic. I'm sure you did much better than you're giving yourself credit for. Was your interview for ICU? If so, then you can thank your very-ICU-Type-A personality to blame for the anxiety hahahahahhaha

It was for ICU funny enough. I've worked as a tech in ICU for 2 years so that could very well contribute to my naturally Type-A personality. I need to stop worrying and let everything play out

Did anyone asked when Grady will send an email about their decision for the nurse residency program? I didn’t ask that after the interview?

I’m following yalls thread because it seems that externship was also done at the same time as residencyBecause it seems that externship applications was also done at the same time as residency. I applied around the end of January and received an update at the end of February. My interview also was done around the same time as you guys and I was told we would get a response in the beginning of April. I hope to also start an anxious residency forum by the end of this year ??? I applied for ICU extern and I hope that was not too bold of me.

Hahaha welcome to the "anxiously-awaiting" party!! ? CONGRATS on interviewing for the externship, that is awesome!!! I did an externship just this recent Summer, but mine was at my local hospital (not Grady). Externships are wonderful, especially if you've been working as a nursing assistant for some time & are ready to expand your skill set as a future nurse!

And why would applying for ICU be "too bold," of you?! If you know that that's your passion - go for it! During my externship interview, I made it very clear that I wanted ICU. I knew there were nearly 80 other students applying for a spot, and there were only 16 spots available - but I knew I had to stay true to my heart! And guess what?! I landed it! Keep your head up and stay true to your passion.
