Hello Everyone!

Starting a thread for those applying to the Palomar Health New Grad Nurse Residency that begins October 2024.

Applications are currently open (July 2024) 

Does anyone have information on the requirements listed.  (For example, ACLS is required for some units, do we need to have that at time of application or by the start date?)

Hey, can I ask what you brought to your interview? I just scheduled mine! 

My interview was online via Microsoft Teams; the hiring manager insinuated that this was because of the sheer volume of applicants and interviews she had to conduct. If yours is in person, then definitely try to make a portfolio. I know Palomar has that section online about bringing a headshot and two letters of rec. Might as well do that too; always better to be overprepared than underprepared.

Thank you so much!

Stay positive... you will find the unit that is meant for you. Many of us understand. If you don't mind sharing, what kind of questions did you have during your interview? Did you feel prepared? Just don't understand why it has to be so hard. Hang in there! 

For those who did get an interview, what do you think set you apart?

 

So they are still interviewing. I just had one yesterday

I can second this. I just received an offer for an interview today, for a unit that I applied to almost 2 months ago. A little annoying to be honest.

Oh which unit?
