Anyone apply for the GAPP program starting in August? I applied and received a call yesterday for an interview on Tuesday!!

Anyone who has interviewed and was offered a position, is there anything I should prepare for? Any advice would be appreciated!

Also we can keep eachother updated on our progress through this journey!

I got a call for an interview too!!! I'm sooooooo excited!!!

She sent an email to me with directions and parking.

I wasn't told to bring anything, were you?

[JamesmamaRN]

No she did not tell me to bring anything. I am so excited too! Are you going on Tuesday? I didnt go into detail with her about the position or how many open spots they have, did you?

[whitecat5000]

Yeah I'm going Tuesday. She said that they are interviewing Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.

I didn't go into much detail. I was too excited to ask many questions!!

For those of you who had interviews today - how do you feel it went? Also what area did you interview for?

[Chechy]

I interview yesterday and I feel the interview went great, however I'll be 3-4 weeks postpartum (second child) when training starts in September so I am not sure if they will see that as an issue. I know the first 4 weeks of training is all classroom traning only, so I won't have to do any physical activities wich will give me 8-9 weeks to recover from pregnancy before we hit the floors, but like I said before I hope they don't see that as an issue since I really want this job.

I got a call today. I got the job!!!

Has anyone else heard anything? I interviewed for a Med-Surg position last Tuesday, but haven't heard anything yet.

I also interviewed in Tuesday last week, and wasn't made an offer. The HR paperwork days were to be today and tomorrow, so I'm assuming I didn't get it. But I am curious that you said you interviewed for med-surg?? I interviewed at 11am on Tuesday and they only had CVICU, PICU, and ED. I would have LOVED med-surg (yes, I AM weird!!!). Are you sure it was med-surg?

[azrn89]

Yes I'm sure. There were four of us interviewing in our time slot...2 for ICU and 2 for Med-Surg. I believe that they automatically selected the areas for us because I never actually specified Med-Surg. And no you aren't weird haha, I would love a Med-Surg position too!!
