I start November 12th in the BICU. I'm not sure if I'm enrolled in the residency program or not. I'll find out this week when I go for my physical and employment services.

BICU - wow that's an amazing opportunity. Good luck to you! Maybe we'll bump into each at some point.

Wow, Columbia Presbyterian wouldn't even interview me, and I applied by fax, online and in person at a job fair! Did you all have anything special on your resume? I don't know what I did wrong!

I have experience in the ER and Cardiac Surgery ICU, along with a step-down telemetry unit. I also have my ACLS and PALS. Maybe even being an Eagle Scout helped. I built up my resume over the last 5 years, but I wasn't expecting to get a job in NYC so quickly, so I'm just as surprised.

Nope, though I did volunteer on a first aid squad. I was at one point an EMT-B, but have since let that certification lapse.

I know they prefer a nurse with a BSN, but they did hire me and I have an Associate's.
