Legacy Versant RN Residency - who's applying for this round?

[tejon]

This is my third time applying, so here's hoping the third time is the charm. I graduated last June and will be finishing up my BSN at OHSU in June (with a 4.0!) and will have 9 months of home health experience with medically fragile children, so I'm hoping to have some chance this time around. If not, it's great interview experience, right?

Heads up, recruitment has re-opened. Im debating if i should reapply. It says that EVERYTHING needs to be resubmitted, even transcripts. I don't mind the whole application process, but to re-do the reference check is such a hassle. Nothing has changed for me (new grad, no experience, no new certifications) since the last round, so I'll be using the same references again, and I felt that I was such a bother, having to constantly remind my references to complete the survey. So I'll be thinking about it. Good luck to everyone!

Hoping that this third time will be the last time I'll have to apply. Flying in this time, instead of doing the phone interview.

oops, I guess I was wrong. Just got an email saying that my references from the last round will be re used. Good luck!

I'm applying for the first time. Good luck everybody! I'm not sure that as many people knew about this round, has anybody heard how many applied?

Anyone heard back yet? I got accepted into a new grad program in s California. Doesn't start til January. Much rather be back home in Oregon.

Been wondering the same thing. Feels like we had our interview schedule by this time last spring. I also haven't gotten any communication regarding references, how did you find out that yours will be "reused?"

[Av03]

I got an email a few weeks back saying they woukd use the same references.

I got an email informing me I'll be having a pre-screen phone interview at the end of December or beginning of Jan. I can't have been the only one on this site. Anybody else?

[Av03]

Just go my interview email a few days ago. FYI...I did two phone interviews and never got to the second stage. Flying in this time for a change of luck.

Anyone know much about applying for endorsement license in Oregon? Specifically, how long it takes? We have to have our license by Feb 1. Plus, I don't know if we should also apply for Washington license. Any insights?

Hey you. Noticed your posts for Scripps. The endorsement process took a few weeks. You have to get the forms sent from OBN. They do inked fingerprints for background checks. My recommendation is to so it at a government facility like a police stations. Did mine twice at UPS and it got rejected twice. That delayed me for about a month.
