Hello!
Wanted to create a post for the RN Residency Program January 20, 2025! Any calls or interviews?
klpz said:finished my second round of interviews. I do remember hearing decisions should be finalized by Friday (not sure how true this is)... hopefully we hear good news by then
Second round of interviews? Which unit did you apply to? I didn't know there was a second round.. ahhh. I just had my first round and it was more of a "get to know you" .. very conversational but I was still nervous
jj_BSN88 said:Same! It was very conversational.. I was nervous and then it got better. Do you know how many they are hiring in their unit?
I didn't ask so I'm not sure! Also I totally forgot to ask if it's night shift. I'm assuming it is since it said that in the application description but I was wondering if the precepting/orientation phase would be day shift? I know some hospitals have new grads start on days and then later switch to nights, so if anyone knows how this hospital does it, please let me know!

I'm assuming orientation are days and we will transition to be on our own after 13 weeks. Orientation includes being with 1-2 preceptors and online classes/modules on body symptoms. I'm assuming nights since that is what the application says.
