Palo Alto VA RN Residency

Published

Hey everyone!! I applied to the Palo Alto VAs RN residency program and wanted a place I could check in with others during the application process.

I'm graduating from a BSN program in Tallahassee, FL and will be moving across the country as soon as I find a job! My boyfriend just moved to Campbell on Thursday, so it's starting to feel real now!

This residency progrAm sounds amazing so I'm crossing my fingers! Has anyone heard back from recruiters yet? Any idea how many people applied?

I'd love to hear what you have to share! Best of luck!

I was contacted last week and invited for an interview. I believe they may have offered all of the interviews that they intended to at this point.

Oh wow! Well congrats! That was fast!!! I technically didn't qualify because I don't grAduate until May, but I figured it couldn't hurt! I'm going to apply to the next cycle tho :) again, congratulations!

Would you mind sharing some of your stats/strengths/connections (BSN? Certifications? GPA?) you have? I'm curious as to what things might make an application stand out amongst the rest. I'd love the feedback ans my emails [email protected] if you'd rather not post that publicly.

As for me, I'm an LPN with about 5 months experience, will have BSN in May, 3.5GPA, class President, Sigma Theta Tau, ACLS certified. I've worked hard but I know the competition is daunting!

Just got my email today saying I was inneligble and therefore won't be considered

Not sure I can be of much assistance in that department. I have nearly 10 years of military experience and I'm sure that weighed heavily in my selection to receive an interview.
