New York Presbyterian/Columbia (NYP Email) New Grad

RNgalUSA · Apr 13, 2015

I had went to their new grad meet and greet in November, after filling out their requisite questionnaire. I received and automated email saying that I was a top candidate etc, however there are many candidates, ... There was nothing at the current time open for new grads. Tough hospital to get interviewed for. Make sure to look into interview questions etc. They'll def try to ask you all of them

Thank you so much for the feedback, as I know it is so difficult to get into! Did you go to the interview? When I received the information saying I was a top new grad it gave me an interview date.

I got an "exclusive" interview too! But mine is at Cornell! When is yours? I really don't know what to expect of this because this seems new?

I got the same e-mail! This does appear to be a new process for NYP- i.e. the skipping the meet and greet event and replacing it with the virtual event/ interviews. I still think that the "top" applicant pool is very large though, so it's tough. I wasn't able to log into the virtual event the other night so I will be attending the alternate date this Tuesday at 5:00 pm. I plan to ask the Talent Acquisition Team if things are progressing differently this year- like if they have a lot of known openings for new grads and whether the "interview" that we're going on is with a specific unit(s) that we could potentially get hired to, or whether it's just an initial screening sort of situation.

Congrats guys! Hopefully between all of the NYP campuses they have room for most of the top grads, I think it's 200 of us!

Mine is June 9th at Columbia, but apparently that doesn't 100% mean that would be the hospital we work at? That's what I got out of that virtual event. My fingers are crossed though, I would LOVE to start at NYP - wish I had connections there!

So I got an e-mail yesterday giving me specifics about the interview! We are actually going to be face to face with nurse managers!? I'm confused and intrigued as NYP has never done this before. Mine is for Pediatrics and PICU. Anyone else?

Congrats, my interview is in the ED and PICU!

ALH_93RN · May 31, 2015

Awesome!! Did we put our preferences on this application? It's so odd, I don't even remember doing that- I remember it being fairly bare bones and then doing the personality screening.

Haha I vaguely remember putting my 3 top floors down. I'm pretty sure picu and ed were my top 2, so I guess most of us got the floors we put down for preference. A little confused though because they made it seem like that even though we're interviewing on these floors, that doesn't necessarily mean those are the floors we'd be hired onto. I wonder why they don't just give us general interviews then, hmm..

Is your interview June 9th too?

Congrats everyone! My interview is june 9th for Oncology and Cardiac at Columbia! I believe that is where I would be placed if I got hired? The email I got sounded reassuring about the interview. I wonder how many people got one.
