I'm pretty excited but looking to see if there's anyone else starting orientation with me.I am from Boston so I'm also looking for roommates/ and apartments so if there's anyone else from out of state looking comment below!
Jm12345 129 Posts Oct 6, 2016 hello, I'm am not starting this fall, but I did apply and received the email to take the battery. If you don't mind me asking, what was your timeline like from applying to being hired. After the battery, how long did it take to hear back? Be asked for an interview? Since they won't tell you if you weren't chosen it would be comforting I guess to hear from others that went through it so I have some idea of the timeline. Thank you!

tbox93 4 Posts Oct 7, 2016 Hey Jm12345, everything happened very quickly for me. I received an email the day after the battery tests asking me some general info then the next day I received an email saying they would like to interview. You should hear back soon!Good luck!!!
tbox93 4 Posts Oct 7, 2016 Hey Ermac, I interviewed in the ICU so the questions they asked were pretty specific to that unit. They asked me questions like what do you do if your patient has chest pain or a patient with decreased loss of consciousness. But they weren't looking for just assessment, they wanted details. I'm not sure if it's like that for all units but I would just go over the main conditions your unit would see.Hope that helps!

Jm12345 129 Posts Oct 24, 2016 I graduate in December and I sent in an application a couple of weeks ago. Since then I have redone my resume and being closer to graduation I want to apply again but it says not to apply twice or it will slow down the process. Has anyone else had this issue or applied twice and was still interviewed? Any suggestions?
