New York Presbyterian/Columbia (NYP Email) New Grad

rjmRN · Jun 3, 2015

Hi All,

I just got my email as well and interview June 9th for Surgical Stepdown and Med/Surg. Based on my research both of the managers I'm interviewing with work at Columbia so I'm assuming that's where they are looking to hire for those floors. The interview time slots are only 20 minutes...seems short no? Congrats on everyone getting an interview!

I felt as if the PCDs made it seem as if they aren't hiring many new grads. After speaking with one of the HR members on the side, she mentioned that in 2 weeks we will find out if we are still being considered for a job at NYP, so it wouldn't mean that we are guaranteed one there.

What did the PCDs say to make you think that?

According to the recruiters, 150 got interviews, then its cut down from there, and they are splitting among the 6 hospitals so I think we all have a pretty good chance? I'm staying hopeful.

Did anyone else get the email about being a top new graduate? I was wondering how long the process would take until we actually got hired or if we even do.

They said it's on a rolling basis so does it mean it be anywhere from 1 week to many months?

I got it, I'm confused by the email.

I'm going to try to get in touch with HR tomorrow to ask more details. Let me know if anyone hears anything with more details!

Hi!

I've had the same experience as most of you thus far. I received the e-mail as a top candidate and asked to skip the Career Event and come for the In-Person Interview June 9th. I interviewed with the PICU & ED Directors and felt as though it went really well!

I wish the e-mail sent out today was a bit more clear with the details of their hiring process. Let me know if anyone receives any updates from HR and I will do the same! I feel like it was a generic message sent to all the candidates and hopefully we will hear more updates in the upcoming months...

It wasn't a group interview, correct? Mine is tomorrow for Mother-Baby and Peds. I'm so nervous!

You'll be fine, I'm pretty sure they sent the emails to most people who interviewed! It was one-on-one in a conference room, people were being interviewed at each table - good luck!!!

I interviewed for ED and PICU as well! I know the PICU manager said she is hiring one new grad, but it wouldn't be until after December when she gets approval. I didn't get any insight to how many new grads/if any the ED is hiring. Good luck - keep in touch!

For the interview I was led to believe I was interviewing for the specific floor because they mentioned what specialty each of the nurse managers I was meeting was in (i.e. Cardiology Tele @ Columbia) but it turned out to just be a general interview for the whole system. But you do get to mention where you would like to be. I said Cardiology/Critical Care/anything.

I don't exactly understand the point of sending the e-mail unless it meant they further cut down the 150 people and to just let certain people know they are still being considered?

If I hear of anything else I'll let you all know!

And kdacayo, the interviews I had (idk if it will be the same) were held in a room of approximately 20 small square tables and a nurse manager sitting in each one. I met with two nurse managers, each for 20 minutes, moving from one table to another, and then left. The recruiters were friendly in the waiting room and helped us relax a little bit. Good luck!

Hello,

I will be going tomorrow to NYP/Weill Cornell for two interviews. The email said it was for Neurology ICU and Pediatric ICU. From what I have been reading on this thread, we are not being interviewed for these specific units, but more for the whole system? Good luck to everyone who has already gone and those who go this week!
