Has anyone has orientation at NYP Columbia? How long is the classroom session? How many weeks before you are on the floor?

Hi Jerseygirl12! Are you starting at NYP? I'm starting soon, and I've been told that the first two days are a hospital-wide orientation for all positions/specialties. The third day will be with Nursing Education. Those 3 days are the only things that have been explained to me in writing - It has also been mentioned that the nursing education sessions may extend across the first 2 weeks, but that was just a comment in passing so I'm not certain of that.

Me, still waiting to hear back. I am an RN looking to move to critical care, I have close to 2 years hospital experience but job search is about as difficult as when i was a new grad. I do not get considered b/c i do not have experience in that specific department as per the recruiter. However new grads get hired and they dont have experience either. I feel as if I'm in worse luck than a new grad. Its all about patience i guess. Im grateful for my current job but i rather work with a patient population that needs the most nurse care.
