New York Presbyterian Queens

[Birdsofprey]

Hi Everyone!

I landed an interview with NYP Queens for their ER department, I am very excited. I wanted to reach out here on Allnurses and see if anyone has any insight or experience into how their interviews or hiring process tends to work. Any feedback would be appreciated. I am currently enrolled in an online BSN program but have 9 months experience as a Telemetry RN in a city hospital. I am hoping the lack of a BSN won't be too much of an issue- I was upfront about it on my resume when I applied. Thanks!

Is your friend Trump? LOL..to be blunt it is brutal. Personally I am mentally and physically exhausted. No one can be prepared for this. It was a bit on the quiet side on last week but Friday night it kind of ticked up at our ER which meant admissions on the unit and this dashed our hope all over again. I think the most difficult part for me is seeing these patients with no one there and can only see our eyes. Usually I have my phone with a pic of myself in my scrubs and ID that way they have an idea what I look like. Very sad situation. Many of our nurses got sick and we worked very short. It is just overwhelming. Thankfully I am healthy to go in.

How was your phone interview if you don't mind me asking? I recently applied to a position at NYP. I got a pre-screen questionnaire and a week after I got an assessment which I had to complete online? Is this the process you went through? If so, how long and what are the next steps? I'd truly appreciate if you can share.

Have there been any updates past that? Have you heard from them?

I submitted the assessment on Wednesday, haven’t had an update yet. I’ve done research and heard that the process is slow at NYP. I also use to volunteer there and applied late October and did not start until January.

I see. Same here. I did mine on Wednesday as well. Have you heard about their residency program? I applied but it wasn't really my top choice as I always thought coming out of nursing school we should be able to land an FT RN job that would give us the usual 3-6 months orientation instead of having to go through a residency program which almost feels like going back to nursing school again.

It seems like a good program that'll ease the transition from being a nursing student to a nurse . It is a full-time RN job, you go through orientation (I believe it may be 12 weeks, I could be wrong) and I assume after that, you are able to be on the floor with patients. I think orientation is based on the specialty you are hired for. If I get any updates I'll be sure to post.

Great! Please do. I will try to reach out possibly Tuesday because I have an interview this Monday at another hospital and if offered the position then, I'd have to make a decision, especially since NYP seems to take a while. Thank you for responding.
