Per the interviewers, a few weeks. Whether that's 2 or 3 was unclear. They did mention that holidays could cause delay.

Hmm that's interesting. Their first round of phase 2 heard back immediately. Interviewed Friday heard back Tuesday. Thought it'd be same for us! Was hoping to hear back before the holidays, but I guess we're waiting!

Disregarding the material, what did you do to really shine during the interview? Any prep, speaking courses? Any preparatory interviewers you used to be able to speak more eloquently?

Tbh, I focused mainly on CCRN and knowing it like back of my hand. I answered their questions straightforwardly without giving any extra info. And tired to stay as calm as possible. I do have a stutter so I was scared about it but it didn't seem to hinder my performance! That's really all the advice I can give! Be as confident as possible !

Hey guys/gals I know its be a stressful week (for those who interviewed 12/13) repeatedly checking your email and refreshing allnurses but did anyone hear anything back besides the one acceptance we heard about from @ICURN26 (congrats by the way)?

Yes I got the acceptance the same time as icurn26. I was part of the 1pm group on 12/13.

Didn't get waitlist or rejection. Was also wondering if anyone else got acceptance. Did you guys send thank you emails after?
