Memorial Healthcare System Nurse Residency - Fall 2025

Published

Hello! Has anyone applied to Memorial Healthcare System's Fall 2025 Nurse Residency Cohort? Applications were open from August 4-8. Please post updates of the process of applying (call from recruiter, invitation to interview, denial). If you have interviewed for this position in the past please also explain what that experience was like. It's extremely competitive in South Florida and would love to build a community throughout this difficult application process. 

Hi! I applied as well. I haven't gotten a response back yet, I know it is too soon as well. I been trying to get into a residency since October 2024, almost a year now. The competition is intense.

Hi! Yes, I applied to UM as well. I read on some other post that its good to make a porfolio, instead of a regular resume so im working on that now. 
For UM, I submitted a regular resume, but it still says application recieved and on memorial it says application under review.. lets see what happens

oh my!! almost a year!! how far do you usually get in the application process? really hoping it works out for you this time! it seems as though they change the way interviews often. I'm hearing that it's usually either with the unit manager and not a big hiring event like they stated on their website. could you clarify?

I know! its been hard. As far as interviews go, I have only been able to get one interview, and it was with UM. I had 4 hiring managers in front of me, all asking very different questions. Nonetheless, I was extremely nervous, but I unfortunately didn't land a job with them. 

I haven't had a call from Memorial at all, so I'm not sure how their interviews go. I just realized that they wanted the resume to be uploaded very specifically, with a specific title and all. I'm assuming that's why I've never landed an interview. Let's see how it goes this time around!

UM is amazing place to start. I really hope it works out. When do you think we should expect to hear back?

Definitely within 2-3 weeks, UM takes a while to be honest. If you haven't heard of something then, I recommend trying to contact a recruiter through email for a interview opportunity

To be honest, I'm not sure, but from other posts of different cohort dates in Memorial, I see people saying they get a call after a week from the end date of the application. Don't quote me on it though!
