I just received the email inviting me for an interview at Cal State Fullerton :). I know it is just an interview, but this is the greatest email I have ever received! I need help from you internet gurus. I have often seen people post statistics like number of applicants invited for interviews on the forum, but I am incapable of finding similar data on my own. Does anyone know how many applicants are invited for interviews? Also feel free to share anything you consider of value concerning this amazing program. Thanks in advance!

I got an interview as well. From what I have heard, there are approximately 80 people invited for the formal interview. They will select 35-40. I am very excited and nervous too. Im taking my ccrn in January so I have been busy studying for it. Wish I got certified earlier. The holiday makes it difficult to study for the exam. Nice to meet you.

Any other words of wisdom about Kaiser? Any others headed out to interview? I guess I am anxiously excited to get this process rolling! Anyone else out there feeling like a youth anticipating their first kiss?

So how did it go with everyone? I walked out feeling really good and then I ran the scenario in my head and thought I could've done better. But I guess it's the same for all interviews.

When are we seeing the decision email again?

What a cool experience! That was by far the most relaxed interview panel I have seen. Even with such a large group interviewing it was the least intimidating interview thus far. I felt really good about it! We should hear back by the end of the month.

Oh goodness. I totally choked on one question. Overall I think I did bad. So after that I probably won't be getting invited. I really got nervous.
