Hey everyone!

I just accepted an offer for L&D residency this fall at Parkland! I wanted to know what to expect in terms of how long you go 5 days a week for education and when you start on the unit.

Congratulations on your offer! Would you be willing to shed some light on your interview process? Was it just one or did you have rounds? Virtual, in person? Who from the team interviewed you? Etc...

 I'm planning to apply for Feb '26 cohort and I'm curious what to expect from application submission to offer

Thanks!

I applied the day it opened (6/16) first thing in the morning (I would recommend for any residency app since they are so competitive). I applied to about 5 positions. Two days later I got an email that the hiring team was reviewing 3 of my applications, all sent separately. I got an email (7/7) to sign-up for interview slots for the following week. I interviewed that Monday (7/14) and recieved my offer the next Friday (7/25). They gave me a week to accept or decline the offer.

The interview was a 30 minute virtual panel. The day and night unit manger, L&D triage manager, and the unit educator that oversees the nurse residnecy interviewed me. They all asked about 2-3 questions each. I got basic questions like tell me about yourself, why L&D, and why parkland. At least for my interview they asked me 3 negative questions about myself but did not ask anything positive that would allow me to brag on myself. So be ready to make the mistake or disagreement questions show that you'd be a good candidate.

Good Luck! Just be prepared and personable! I got flustered and stumbled on one question which I thought lost me the postion but it still worked out!
