Kaiser Permanente SoCal July cohort

Updated:   Published

What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing receiving offer letters for various nursing positions at different medical centers in locations such as Anaheim, Woodland Hills, San Diego Medical Center, and West LA. Some members have received offers for Labor and Delivery (L&D) units, while others are still waiting to hear back about Medical Surgical (MedSurg) positions. There is also discussion about contacting HR for updates on offers, with some members experiencing delays in communication.

Starting a thread for those applying to KP So Cal for the August 2025 cohort.

The next info webinar will be on March 18th at 10am. 
I'll be graduating in July. After talking to some of the recruiters I was told most likely I won't get picked because of the timeline. Your license has to be posted prior to the start date which is August 18th. But I will still try 🙃

I am an internal candidate, BSN applicant. Good luck to all!

If the talent acquisition consultant ((MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME - PLEASE DO NOT POST IDENTIFYING INFO ABOUT OTHERS)) emails you after an interview and wants to schedule a follow-up phone call to "cover next steps and details", does that mean you got the position?

Yess! I can't imagine them calling you for a rejection. Congratulations! 

Yes congrats ! Which one was this for ?

Congrats! Can you shed some light on the interview process/types of questions? I am graduating soon and plan to apply with hopes of getting into L&D 🙂

Congrats! Any tips on how to be successful when applying? I am graduating soon and plan to apply with hopes of getting into L&D at KP Downey 🙂

For me, questions were very general like "Tell me about yourself" "Why L&D" "A time you made a mistake" etc. No clinical questions! Really be enthusiastic and show how grateful you are for the opportunity but most importantly be yourself!! Asking good questions at the end is also super important! As for certs, I also had my NRP and Fetal Heart Monitoring and they loved that! I had clinical with different Kaiser's and I was also a recipient of a Kaiser Scholarship back when I first started nursing school so I like to think that helped me stand out. They also really liked my portfolios! This was my 2nd interview with Kaiser, my first was with a Med/Surg unit also at Anaheim & I bombed it but I learned a lot and it made me realize how important it is to prepare.

Good luck! Do you happen to know when they're doing interviews until and whether it's in person or virtual?
