Hi everyone!

I just wanted to start a thread so we can keep each other updated on what units we are all applying to and when we start hearing back from them as we apply!

Hi everyone!

I am a current BSN student and plan to apply to the march cohort. I am wondering if those getting interviews/offers have any advice? I am concerned that I am at a bit of a disadvantage because I do not go to school in the area. Does anyone else have a similar situation?

Wondering what types of things you had on your resume/anything you feel helped you really stand out?


Thanks in advance!

Did you happen to ask her why there is still a posting for New Grads in the CVICU? I'm still very confused by these new grad postings that came out this week and last!

No problem! I would love to connect with other people in the cohort. If anyone else ends up accepting an offer at LCPH, let me know! Maybe we can start a facebook group or something.

I just accepted a job on one of the acute care units last week! If you make a facebook group, let me know! I want to connect also ?

Also, does anyone know what the uniform is or what colored scrubs we are able to wear? I want to start looking for some!

I don't know about the scrubs. I've been wondering the same thing. I just completed my occupational health appointment yesterday, so I'm hoping I'll get more information about orientation soon. If you hear anything, please let me know!

Hi everyone,

I am planning to apply to the spring cohort as well and am requesting the same advice that Ace93 asked. LPCH is the dream, and I understand they score applications on a point system. Would anyone kindly provide insight into what they believe management is looking for/what made you stand out? Thanks so much!
