hi! yes I had it this morning 

Hi when did they reach out to you about an interview? I called a couple days ago they said they are currently on a hiring freeze /:

July 30th at like 9am in the morning. They told me there were no interview spots for any of the open positions. 

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope more positions open up soon! It's tough out here as a new grad RN.

I thought the same! I had no hopes because of the hiring freeze but they didn't reach out to me first, I received an email on Tuesday saying they're doing virtual interviews for the RN 1 position for NICU, PICU, and L&D and to call the office to schedule because it was first come, first served. I called about 30 min after I got the email and I overheard them saying there were no L&D spots anymore, just NICU and PICU. so they filled up pretty fast.

It's like a war out here for us new grads! I wish I saw the email sooner. Their office was already closed when I first saw the email, unfortunately.

I didn't know they got filled up that quickly. They hire every other week so maybe try teaching out next week if any other department is open for interviews.

It was from the LA General Nurse Recruitment email and no I didn't sign up for it necessarily. I applied early in the month for the RN 1/Relief position, took the assessment, and emailed them after with the 3 units I was interested in etc. but when I called then to see if anything was open, they told me no. I hadn't gotten anything until now

I see I also applied a couple weeks ago, Did you email them anything else ? I was told some people emailed their resume and score and RN license but when I called all they said was to call back bc of the freeze LOL
