I didn’t get an interview! Do you mind me asking what your stats were, if you have previously applied, any extra curricular things? I have a 3.8 gpa in undergrad and in my masters of nursing program and did volunteer medical missions abroad and have 10 years of icu experience? I don’t understand what else I could do to make them want me? Any advice?

Congrats by the way! What am honor

It seems like if you don’t have all their stats they pointed out on their website in making a strong candidate they don’t want you. I have a 3.7 gpa, medical mission as well, 2 yrs in icu, but no preceptor or charge nurse experience, so I’m not even surprised I didn’t get 1
