I don't have any KP experience, but I have a few volunteer jobs on my resume. I was a recipient of a few scholarships in college, but not the specific one they mentioned in the career snapshot. I'd like to think the thing that made the difference in my application was what I wrote for the short essay questions!
Worked for KP 13 yrs. Quit - No job. Went to nursing school. Graduated magna cum laude from Samuel Merritt University, returned to work at KP as a Patient Care Tech 1.5 years, fulfilled their certificate requirements, LORs, volunteered at Highland Hospital- Alameda Health Syatems 4 years - 6 mo regional occupation dept, 1.5 years step down, and 2yrs ER.

I also chose one hospital.
im so sorry ? I would definitely email them and ask.
nope just five years at an outpatient surgery center basically as a pct. I have my RN license as well ?. The email said to not reach out and ask HR on why we weren’t given an interview haha. Thinking of not even doing a residency program at this point since I’ve been out of nursing school for 6 months. Congrats on getting in!!

wow! this is so good. I only had my BLS, ACLS, PALS, volunteered and currently work at Kaiser. I don't have my license yet, maybe I can land an ICU job, since I did my preceptorship in ICU and reapply for the next round ?

Hi. Your credentials are very impressive. I can see why I didn't get an invite - having to compete with people like yourself. I feel so much better now. Thank you for sharing.
