Hi everyone, I wanted to make this for everyone applying for the Kaiser Socal New Grad Program starting in March 2024
Hi everyone,
I also did my career snapshot last week and have not heard from them yet. I have a couple of questions about this program if anyone can help me. If you have a friend or know someone who did this program, how was their experience? It's one of the closest hospital in my area so I am wondering how they usually run the program and if people like it. Also, does anyone know how likely would it be to move from the original units (Telemetry/ Med-Surg/ Oncology) into ICU or other specialty departments? I would like to hear from others so any input would be nice. Thank you!

I believe Kaiser offers a transitional program after 1 year in the new grad residency program that you can apply for to get into the ICU (I believe there is a waitlist though).

Thank you so much! I didn't know they had that program. I was wondering if I how I would be able to switch to ICU or if I should just reapply in a couple of years and the get ICU experience somewhere else.

Not sure when we'll hear back for interviews but my submission status has now changed to "talent acquisition review in progress" so moving in the right direction!
