Hi RNCharm,
I recently was hired to Newark Beth, but declined the job. You will meet with HR and nurse manager at the unit you applied for.
They will ask you the typical questions like: Why do you want to work here? Why nursing? Why should we choose you? Etc. Before that, you will be asked for 5 references to input onto their SkillSurvey website.
IMO I just found the whole hiring process a little unprofessional on my part, but my curiosity peeked and I went to interview anyway.
I have a few classmates who work there now. Some like it... and some want to get out ASAP (hospital politics, rude seasoned nurses) , but are waiting for their 1 year of experience. The pay is great too.

Thank you for the info. I’ve been thinking about cancelling the interview because I was offered a job at another hospital for same position (medsurg). And im a new grad too.
I’m an old new grad and was also offered a position at another hospital for med-surg as well and while the pay is less, they do offer amazing training.
It depends on the unit you’re in for Newark Beth, but I just didn’t like the atmosphere. Just my two cents.
Good luck on your journey!

Hi NJSassyCat,
Would you happen to know what the pay is at Newark Beth Israel for a new graduate? Also, which specialties did your classmates get jobs in? Thank you!

Well, for me - they were offering me in the mid 30’s. Im almost positive it was 35 for nights and didn’t have much experience. ?
A few were offered in med-surg, telemetry/step-down units.
Hope that helped!

Very helpful, thank you! I have an interview there so I’m hoping it goes well. I’m also trying to find other places besides Newark Beth that will hire new graduates into the ICU. ? Did your classmates do the residency program? Do you know if they liked the program? Thanks again!!

A few were hired straight out of nursing school. A few of us decided on a residency program. Which, by the way, I highly recommend. Usually residency programs teach you up to a year(some six months) in most specialties like ICU. I suggest go on Indeed.com and search for RN Residency programs in NJ. Hackensack hospital and their affiliates like: Jersey Shore Med, Riverview, Mountainside, and Ocean have residencies. ?
