Lakeland Regional Medical Center

U.S.A. Florida

Hi all, I'm new to FL and a new graduate RN (ADN from IL). I have an interview next week at Lakeland Regional Medical Center. Can anyone give me an idea of what to expect? Do they often hire new grads? To be honest I was a little surprised to get the call today, but I'm so excited that I did. I would really love to gain hospital experience and continue to grow and learn as a nurse. As far as I can tell, they don't offer a true "new grad" program, but they do hire new graduates. Any advice would be greatly appriciated. Thank you.

Every manager is different, what specialty are you interviewing in? they offer about a three month orientation period with rotations to diff specialties.

I had my interview on Monday for the Cardiac Floor. I think it went well. I have a second interview scheduled with HR coming up. I'm really hopeful about the possibility of working at LRMC. If anyone can share some info about the union (maybe even a copy of the contract), that would be amazing. I was a flight attendant when I was younger and have worked as a union member in the past, I would just like to get a feel for the contract. Thank you

Congrats on the interview! I am also a new grad ADN from IL, just moved to FL in May and started at LRMC on Sept 15th. So far I really like the orientation process. You orient with different departments to get a feel for how they operate and to understand the bigger picture of services offered at LRMC. Usually the second interview is a good sign, so I hope it all went well for you! They have a union rep come talk to you during your first day of orientation. Good luck to you!!
