Houston Nurse Residency: Spring 2023

Updated:   Published

Hello all! I wanted to start this thread for students graduating in December of 2022. I plan on specializing in either Pediatrics, L&D, or Postpartum! What field do yall plan to go into and where are yall interested in working?  I know that applications for some organizations will be opening up soon. Hopefully with this thread, we can keep each other informed and up to date. So far, I am aware that the Houston Methodist application opens on September 1st, and Memorial Hermann opens on September 11th.

I know a few people who have accepted offers from L&D, PICU, CVICU, adult congenital heart, and OR but none from NICU 

Awe man, I interviewed for Adult Congenital Heart and did not hear anything back. I guess I took myself out of the running because I was honest with preferring days. Oh whale. 

I'm very interested in applying for NICU at TCH, graduating in May 2023. Any tips? Are you allowed to select either level 3 or level 4? Any info appreciated!

Handful of people from variety of units has been gotten offers. Some has been getting offers as soon as the same day or the next day. I interviewed almost a week ago and has not heard anything. I heard that the portal is one of the last places to update so I have not been checking that. Mine says "under review." I don't know what to think or feel. I don't know if TCH really cares to let you know if you aren't selected or offered anything or they just leave you without a call for you to come to the conclusion you should move on? not sure. Does anyone know? 

edit: however, I do not know anyone who heard anything today including myself.

I was able to get a rejection email from ACHD but I stayed in touch with the managers on my interview and the recruiter when I didn't hear back by the deadline they provided - I was really persistent with communication.

Hi! My biggest tip is try to get into the NICU for hands-on experience and highlight that on your resume/interview! Even if it is just one time during a clinical rotation, so that they know you’ve seen what the NICU is actually like. When I interviewed, they told me that I would be placed on NICU 2,3, or 4 based on how my interview went and the needs of the units, but they did ask me my preference which is what I ultimately got.

I would express how much you care for the infant population. It also helps to recognize that as a NICU nurse you are also being a support for the parents going throught that difficult time.  Just have confidence that you got this!!

Has anyone heard from memorial Hermann?

I did get an automated email today saying "your application has been submitted" and that it's under review for my first choice unit - but they stated somewhere that they'll contact you a week before they start interviewing to move forward, so that's what I'm waiting on!

 

Also, I received an offer letter for St. Luke's Woodlands campus today!! Has anyone else heard back?

My original application was split into 2 for my first and second choice and then there's a third application that says "[Unit Name] - NRP." They said on their webinars that they will be processing applications through 10/7 and will begin reaching out via phone/email/text to schedule interviews on the week of 10/10. They said sometimes their calls to schedule interviews or fix mistakes on applications go to spam so they suggested turning off spam block. Their first match week will be 10/17 through 10/21.

 Has anyone received an update from Memorial Hermann (TMC & The Woodlands). Also anything from Texas Children's (The Woodlands)?
